There is strong evidence that when small and medium sized businesses (SMEs) protect their IP rights, they create increased value and growth for themselves. There is also a strong case for smaller businesses seeking the help of specialist IP professionals.
The case for SMEs taking IP protections more seriously is explored in a new video presented by FICPI members from around the world.
This video is one of several initiatives taken by FICPI to recognize World IP Day on April 26th, which focused on the needs of small businesses this year.
In addition to the video, FICPI President Julian Crump had an article published in the magazine of the World IP Organization (WIPO), the body which promotes World IP Day.
FICPI US member, Branko Pejic, had a thought piece published on the same topic, this one in the magazine of the European American Chamber of Commerce in New York (EACCNY). FICPI has recently joined EEACNY, with Branko leading our member delegation.
