Intellectual Property Tips Every Small Business Owner Should Know

This seminar will provide an overview of intellectual property law with a focus on trademark and branding law specifically geared to set the small business owner up for success.

Naming your company is one of the most important things a company does.  The name you choose communicates a host of messages both intentional and sometimes unintentional in the minds of your target consumer.  Your name establishes goodwill and credibility in the minds of consumers.  It’s important to choose a name that communicates your core values and will set you up to differentiate your product or service for years to come.  How you do protect that name?  And legally, what are some of the things you should be doing now, as you are developing your business plan to set you up for success? In this engaging presentation, Stacey C. Kalamaras, Founding Partner of Kalamaras Law Office, LLC will walk you through the importance of protecting your intellectual property assets, in particular your brand.  She will discuss the different types of trademarks, how you can protect your trademark on a national level and other intellectual property tips every small business owner should know.
