IP Fit for Funding - Masterclass & 1:1 IP Clinic

IP Fit for Funding: Masterclass for Start-Ups

Securing funding is a top priority for most start-ups. But here's what many founders overlook: investors don’t just back great ideas - they back protected ideas. If your intellectual property (IP) isn’t secured, your funding application - and your business - could suffer.

Your IP (patents, trade marks, copyrights, and trade secrets) gives your business exclusive rights to your innovations and brand. A well-protected IP portfolio not only prevents competitors from copying your ideas but also boosts your valuation and makes you more attractive to investors.

If you’re preparing to apply for funding, having a clear IP strategy can make your application stand out. Show investors that you’ve taken proactive steps to safeguard your business - and position your start-up for success.
