Free business workshop run by Business Sheffield on patents, trademarks, designs and copyright and their impact on business, taxation and immigration.
Protecting Your Ideas: A Simple Guide to Intellectual Property runs at Electric Works on Thursday 3 December, from 10:00 to 12:00. It's put on by Business Sheffield as part of the city's free business workshop programme, so it's aimed at anyone running a company or getting one off the ground here in Sheffield.
The session walks through the different intellectual property rights available to businesses — patents, trade marks, designs and copyright — and explains how they can be used to a company's advantage rather than just as a way of protecting ideas. It's not just about locking things down; it's about how you actually work with these rights to help your business grow.
Beyond the basics, the workshop looks at the wider implications of IP rights, including their impact on taxation and immigration. That's the kind of practical stuff that often gets missed when you're just thinking about the creative side of things, so it's worth having it all in one place.
