The IP Lunch Club: Benefits Of Incorporating An IP Strategy Into Your Business Plan

Picture this: you're an entrepreneur or business owner with a great idea, product, or service. You have worked hard on developing what you are passionate about and expecting success with your business growth. In a split second, your success and growth are put to a halt and all you have worked for is exploited. Are you protected?

Sandbox Centre in partnership with IP Innovation Clinic​ and Invest Barrie​ invites you to join a 3-Part Series: The IP Lunch Club!  IP Innovation Clinic & SBX will be offering free virtual info sessions across a wide range of topics that will aid you in making sure your business, idea, or product is protected.

Robust business plan - check. Company policies created - check. Protecting the company's IP assets - TBD? 

Today more than ever, IP is everywhere, in nearly all industries, and is a substantial consideration for most businesses. If you have taken the time and effort to create a robust business plan and policies, why not consider the importance of managing the protection of IP assets?

In Part 3 or 3 of the IP Lunch Club series, the IP Innovation Clinic team will discuss how incorporating an IP strategy into the business plan can help strengthen a company's market position. How does intellectual property relate to your business plan? What must you consider as you acquire, protect, and commercialize intellectual property? Planning out an IP strategy early on can help you avoid nasty surprises down the line. This presentation details a basic six-step framework you can adapt into a prospective intellectual property strategy for your business.

The IP Lunch Club series is proudly presented by Invest Barrie​.
