Why IP is the most important commercial asset for your business
We are pleased to welcome BFA Partner, Briffa to present an exclusive webinar for BFA Members on Wednesday 26th January at 10 am.

Intellectual property rights are legal protections for creations of the mind. These include artistic, literary and musical works, designs, inventions, and business assets, like brand names, logos, and even trade secrets. Common forms of intellectual property legal protections include trademarks, copyright and patents.
In this webinar, William Miles from Briffa will explain why IP is your most important commercial asset. He will cover the IP rights that are most relevant in the footwear industry and explain what practical steps brands can take to increase their protection, without exposing them to claims from third parties.
Join this free webinar, taking place on Wednesday 26th January at 10 am, to hear first-hand advice from Briffa to help you increase your IP protection.
After the 30 minute presentation, there will be an open Q&A session. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have to William.
