Training Course Content

Introduction

The development and commercialisation of intellectual property such as trade marks, copyright, patents and know-how can improve the competitiveness of a business, underpin the value in a business and be key to its success.

However, businesses must take care to ensure that the intellectual property rights that help them generate revenue and wealth are adequately protected.

Efficient management and exploitation of its intellectual property can help a business obtain higher return on investment and secure its long-term economic growth.

This new virtual classroom seminar will explore the different types of intellectual property rights commonly created or used by SMEs, ownership of these rights on their creation and the different ways of generating revenue from IP.
