<strong>Introduction to Intellectual Property </strong><br>
Build understanding of IP and how it might be applied within your business plan, marketing and contracts.<br>
<br>
<strong>Understanding trade marks, brand and designs</strong><br>
The relationship between your brand and trade mark protection. Your brand is your identity; it’s how your customers know who you are. This could be your business name, logo or a catchy slogan.<br>
<br>
<strong>Introduction to patents</strong><br>
A patent is a legally enforceable right for a device, substance, method or process. For your application to be successful, your invention must be new, useful and inventive or innovative.<br>
<br>
<strong>Introduction to Intellectual property and taking your IP global</strong><br>
If you’re considering entering foreign markets, it’s important to take time to consider protections in those new markets and ensure you have protections in Australia. <br>
<br>
Please note - A minimum number of attendees is required for this session to go ahead.</span><a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/WGHqCnx1jni7Bym1mhJAo5M?domain=sta.eventsair.com" style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:normal" target="_blank"><span style="color:#4e5f70"><span style="font-size:12px">Â <b>Register now</b></span></span></a><br>
