Concept to Copyright: The Value of Intellectual Property

26 October, 2023 @ 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm

Concept to Copyright: The Value of Intellectual Property
In Concept to Copyright, our esteemed panel will delve into the often tricky world of IP and discuss both personal and commercial compliance

What defines ownership of intellectual property is one of the most hotly debated topics in the creative industries. And why wouldn’t it be. Afterall, expertise, ideas and creativity underpin an individual’s value, as much as they define an agency or even the client.

In Concept to Copyright, our esteemed panel will delve into the often tricky world of IP and discuss both personal and commercial compliance.

Beyond that, we’ll explore opportunities for developing and commercialising your IP; recent updates in government policy; and how tax breaks for R&D are helping drive tomorrow’s innovation.
