Build your business around IP – It’s all in the planning
Organiser
Funding for Business Innovation
Ewa Bloch, West Midlands Regional Manager at Innovate UK, will discuss the role that Innovate UK plays both in terms of its national remit and regional presence; how it helps businesses understand market and business opportunities, and how it can support them in developing products, processes and services that grow their companies, and also contribute to the UK economy.
Tax Relief for Business Innovation
David Marshall, Director at MMP Tax, will explain why innovative companies should put IP planning at the forefront of their business strategy.
SME’s, start-ups and established large businesses can all benefit from understanding how IP planning can have a positive impact on their business.
MMP will explore the following areas to demonstrate why businesses should take a wider view of IP and technology incentives and the positive impact they can have:
- Developing new IP – what to consider
- IP tax strategy – how can I make it pay
- IP protection strategy – how to avoid the pitfalls
- Your people and their role in IP
- Your website and supply chain – who owns the IP?
Who should attend?
- Business, Finance, Tax and Technical leads from all innovative businesses.
