Intellectual property is more than just legal jargon - it's a strategic tool that can give your startup a competitive edge.

You've got big ideas, but how do you protect them before someone else capitalizes on your hard work?

What other benefits could intellectual property (IP) bring to your business?

Whether it's an innovative product, a unique process, software, data, or a brand name, identifying and protecting your IP is essential to maintaining an advantage in a crowded market.

Join Cameron Smithers of ElevateIP Alberta, alongside Trevor Prentice and David Bayda of The IP Link, for a hands-on workshop designed to help you turn your ideas into valuable business assets and leverage your IP to fuel business growth.

By the end of this workshop, you will:

  • Understand what intellectual property is and why it's vital to your business.
  • Identify the five key types of IP and recognize which ones apply to your business.
  • Learn the first steps to protecting each type of IP, ensuring your ideas remain yours.
  • Discover how IP protection can give you a competitive advantage in the marketplace and what other benefits it could bring.

Whether you're just starting out or still refining your business idea, this session will equip you with the tools and knowledge to protect and maximize the value of your intellectual property!
