This two-day, CPD-accredited course offers hands-on training delivered by IPO specialists, blending expert teaching with real-world case studies. Participants will learn how to:
-
Protect and defend intellectual property in the UK and abroad
-
Search trade mark, design, and patent registers
-
Avoid infringing on others’ rights
The course also covers when and how to seek professional advice from IP attorneys — essential knowledge for innovators, product designers, and business owners developing new ideas.
Ideal for entrepreneurs, business advisers, inventors, and professionals involved in innovation and product development, the course costs £300 plus VAT, with the venue to be confirmed soon.
For Omagh-based businesses developing new products or creative content, this masterclass is a great way to strengthen your competitive edge and understand the true value of your ideas.
