Marking your territory: all about trademarks
Event Details
Your brand — your business name, your logo, your slogan — these represent you and your business. They are the embodiment of your goodwill and your reputation.
So, protecting them is vital and should be an important part of your business plan.
This session will discuss trademarks — the mechanism by which you can protect your business identity, and keep others from damaging your good name.
We will cover:
