DPMA / Understanding and registering intellectual property rights – Introduction

Intellectual property is an often underestimated but crucial success factor for start-ups and companies. Whether it's a brand name, logo, product design, software, or innovative business idea – if you don't protect your intangible assets in good time, you risk not only imitation but also costly legal disputes.

In this compact web seminar, our expert will give you a practical introduction to the most important basics of industrial property rights. You will learn about the different forms of intellectual property, why they are relevant to your company, and how you can take initial protective measures – before it's too late.

The aim of the seminar is to help you:

• Recognize potential in the area of intellectual property at an early stage – so you know what is worth protecting in your company.
• Avoid legal disputes from the outset – through better understanding and clear strategies.
• Take the first steps to protect and enforce your rights – from registration to defending your IP.

This workshop will be held in German.
