No patent, no success? How to protect your business idea [free event]

Australian Centre for Entrepreneurship Research and IP Australia

Thursday, 19 November 2015 from 9-11am 
You have an innovative idea and want to start a venture? Promoting your business idea – both offline and online - is a fundamental part of the entrepreneurial journey. As start-ups seek customers, potential partners, investors or even new employees, they must repeatedly reveal details about their product or service to others. Safeguarding intellectual property has become crucial to developing and maintaining a successful business.

Learn more about how, when and why during Global Entrepreneurship Week 2015!  The Australian Centre for Entrepreneurship Research, IP Australia and QUT Bluebox kindly invite you for their interactive event on intellectual property on Thursday 19 November.
