IP Health Check:

Why use it:
Every business will own some form of intellectual property, but do you know how to protect these assets?

The IP Health Check online tool is free to use and will help you answer these questions.

How it works:
The tool is split into nine modules:
** trade marks
** trade marks overseas
** patents
** copyright
** designs
** confidential information
** licensing your intellectual property
** franchising
** enforcement

Your progress is saved, so you don’t have to complete all the modules in one go – you will be able to log back in later and pick up from where you left off.

New :
We have introduced a new module on enforcing your intellectual property. This has been designed for people who think that their intellectual property has been infringed and provides guidance on the actions they can take.

What you get:
By answering a series of simple questions a tailored confidential report is created for you, based on what you have told us. This report will include;
** a personalised list of actions to take
** an explanation of why we have made each recommendation
** guidance on how to put each course of action into practice
** links to useful information, websites and other resources

You can start straight away – just click the link above and enter your e-mail details.

How the free IP Health Check helps you:
Businesses create and use intellectual property all the time, perhaps without realising it. The value of your IP – whether it’s a trade mark, patent, design, copyright or trade secret – can far outweigh the value of your physical assets. Keep ahead of the competition with the IP Health Check.

It will help you find out:
** If you have IP to protect.
** Whether you own it and, if you don’t, who does.
** How to protect it, and whether you should.
** How you can exploit it commercially.
