How to Protect an Innovative Idea ® [Live Webinar!]
20 Apr 2023
18:00 - 20:00
Far too often companies and startups fail to realise that “talking about something innovative” – prior to filing – could actually kill the chance of obtaining a valid Patent. Choosing the wrong Trademark can lead to dangerous interference with competitors and jeopardise previous investments. Patents, Designs, Models, Copyrights… do not only concern the tangible world but also web platforms and digitally developed projects.
How to protect an innovative idea® is a highly successful event currently in its eight edition.
The event covers the basic rules of intellectual property in just two and a half hours: as such, it is innovative as it is essential, educational and full of iconic references. We talk about trademarks, patents, design and copyright… using a common language that everyone can understand.
Every idea always results in authorship content, software, data collections, confidential information. It is imperative to provide a legal foundation for your business project so as not to jeopardise its market potential.
Please note, the course is held in Italian.
This event is for all those who do not know how to protect their project or their work: entrepreneurs, start uppers, freelancers but also creative people and artists who want to understand how to protect it on the market.
How to defend an innovative idea® will be held as a Live Webinar on 20 April 2023, from 18:00 to 20:00.
Please note, the course is held in Italian.
The course is free of charge but places are limited: booking is necessary. The event will take place as a Zoom meeting. We will provide you with attendance instructions upon confirmation of your registration. We suggest connecting to the event at least 15 minutes before it starts.
