Understanding your intellectual property and how you can protect it is important for businesses and creators, find out how in our interactive workshop.

In our final Start-up Leeds session at The Reginald Centre, our Business & IP Centre Leeds team will be providing an overview of the two most common ways of protecting your business through understanding copyright and registering trade marks.

In this session, you’ll:

• Find out how having a trade mark can help protect your brand

• Learn what can and cannot be registered

• Learn what copyright means for you and your business, how it protects your work and how long copyrights last

• Understand how to ensure you’re not infringing on anyone else’s trade mark or copyright.
