Join us for a day of free talks, expert workshops and tailored advice designed to get your business idea off to a flying start
One ticket gets you access to the whole day, however you can book separately to have an IP one-to-one, attend a speed mentoring session or go to an 'How to use the Business & IP Centre' workshop, as spaces for these are limited.
