RCTT invites all interested to participate in the webinar "The Importance of IP for SMEs", organized by IPR Helpdesk.

In order to raise awareness regarding IP in SMEs day-to-day activities, we need to understand their problems and connect them with useful information regarding IP rights. This webinar will provide an overview of problems and mistakes that are committed while communicating to SMEs, suggesting possible solutions.

After the training, participants should be able to address the following:

• What is Intellectual Property (IP)?
• What are Intellectual Property Rights (IPR)?
• Common problems of SMEs in their day-to-day activities?
• Why should I deal with IP/IPR issues? Why should IP be an integral part of my business strategy?
• How can IP be a business asset?
• Which IP protection tools exist/can I use (e. g. trademarks, patents, etc.)?
• To which institutions can I turn for help?

The webinar is free of charge.
Webinar will be held on April 20, 2021, at 10:30-12:00 (CET) (11:30-13:00 Minsk time).
