That’s why they’ve recently created IP Basics – IP made easy, a new series of IP-based animations.

This suite of 12 short animations breaks IP down into bite-sized chunks that clearly explain the different rights and how they can benefit business.

So whether you’re new to IP or just brushing up on your skills, or wondering how to distinguish your trade marks from your copyright, this is the perfect place for you to start.

If you design your own unique products then registering your design is easy and simple and can cost as little as £60. This will protect you against copying and will aid your sales. See this short sketch for an introduction.
