Navigating your way around the world of intellectual property can sometimes seem complex and complicated … but it doesn’t have to be!
Our recent program of Webinars has been very successful, giving advice on basic intellectual property questions. The most requested area of our webinars has been the question and answer session when we throw open the floor to all to ask your burning questions on design and IP. By popular request we introduce all the best bits – a pure and simple Q & A session to answer all your queries.
Dids Macdonald, OBE., CEO of ACID will introduce ACID Legal Affiliates; Gavin Llewellyn aka @The_DesignLawyer and Niall Head Rapson aka @IP_Doctor who are IP Specialists, to answer YOUR questions. Join us to learn more about protecting and growing your business and how intellectual property can be the key to YOUR success.
A little knowledge can go a long way and dispelling some of the myths surrounding intellectual property is relatively easy. For example;
- Who thinks if you change a design by a certain percentage or number of points it becomes a new design?
- Who is mistaken to think that if you register your company at Companies House it protects your name?
- What images can you use and not use?
- If you are employed, who owns your work?
- Do you have moral rights in your work?
- How do you take down infringing designs from social media platforms and online marketplaces?
- What’s the difference between a patent and a design?
These and other myths will be answered. All registrants will receive a free fact sheet post event.
Send your IP questions to [email protected] when you have registered or raise them during the webinar and join us on 24th February for a lively and interactive session.
