Intellectual Property (IP) strategy is a business strategy

Have you considered how intellectual property (IP) can add value to your business and what types of IP you may already have?

Topics include:

  • Overview of intellectual property types: patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets
  • An introduction to the new IP Identifier tool
