Free support launched to boost small and medium sized business directors


News provided by Falcon PR on Friday 3rd Aug 2012



A new series of free business support events, aimed at the owners of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), has been launched today in Liverpool by the Intellectual Property Office (IPO) and Companies House. The IPO also outlined its range of support for SMEs in a new paper published today.

‘Get It Right – First Time’ is aimed at business owners looking for help with protecting their Intellectual Property (IP) and understanding the responsibilities as a First Time Director.

Baroness Wilcox, Minister for Intellectual Property said:

“These events are enormously helpful for directors who have little or no experience of protecting their IP, or are new to being directors.

“Having run my own business, I know how starting up your own company can be a daunting experience and I am delighted that we can offer directors free support and expert guidance on two key areas of their business.

“I hope that many directors will sign up for these events and use the experience to grow their companies.”

The joint venture between the IPO and Companies House will be hosted by experts from both offices. The team from the IPO will present a variety of seminars that will explain the basics of IP: what it is, why it’s important, how to protect it and then how to exploit it commercially. The seminars will also support business owners and managers, explaining all they need to know about their responsibilities as a First Time Director. This will include information about the incorporation process and how to use the many tools and resources provided by Companies House.
