Aligning your Intellectual Property (IP) and Business Strategies
In partnership with Mathys & Squire, Andrew White will be delivering an IP Workshop at Blue Garage.
Intangible assets now make up a large portion of company valuations. However, many businesses still deal with issues relating to IP reactively when they get thrust into focus by events, rather than proactively. This leads to an outcome which is often less positive and nearly always more expensive. Mathys & Squire will be hosting a workshop on the importance of developing and implementing an effective IP strategy at an early stage, why this matters for investment and how it can add value to your business. A series of real-life case studies will be used to illustrate common mistakes and easy steps that can be taken to improve your IP position.
