Register now for an engaging online session that will make you excited about design protection again!
The phrase ‘intellectual property rights’ might not sound too exciting to many but don’t be misled, it is an interesting and important topic. Strong design protection is crucial not only for designers but also for businesses. We all benefit from the environment with good practices of strong design protection.
Did you know that one of the most pressing issues for designers related to design protection is significant knowledge gaps? Designers often struggle with understanding intellectual property rights, including processes, benefits, and risks, and feel intimidated seeking help, unsure how to ask the right questions
Join our Wide Open Door Dialogue to learn from the industry experts, hear the experience of fellow designers and get practical tools and information for your creative endeavours.
This online session brings together practising designers and businesses utilising design to learn from each other and level up their game in design protection.
The event is free but registration is required.
