We are excited to launch our new software resource booklet — 'IP Protection for software-based products - An Introduction for SMEs'.
For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) developing software-based products (e.g. apps, web services, databases, NFTs), the world of intellectual property (IP) can seem daunting and complex. However, securing IP could be critical to the success of your business in today’s competitive marketplace.
Led by James Leach, this booklet explores the different types of IP protection available for software-based products and provides practical guidance on how these different forms of IP can be used to provide meaningful protection. We also look at how to go about developing an IP strategy that fits with your company’s business model and goals.
