Are you a budding entrepreneur?
How the Government can support your business and ideas.
ONE IP INTERNATIONAL – Chelsea Barton
The Australian Government launched the Entrepreneurs’ Programme as part of the 2014-15 Federal Budget. The Programme falls under the National Innovation and Science Agenda and seeks to foster business competitiveness and productivity.
The programme is designed to support small-medium business owners encouraging them to work smarter not harder and expand to the global market.
The programme is free of charge and operates through FOUR key elements:
If you are a small-medium business owner or are considering starting a new business venture this programme can provide:
- Professional advice
- Matched funding up to $1 million
- Links to successful entrepreneurs, investors and strategic corporations
It will ensure your business remains competitive & productive and offer support to improve your business model.
So what does this mean for the intellectual property sphere?
This initiative directly supports the establishment of new, ‘start-up’ businesses and every start-up needs to own it’s intellectual property. This programme focuses of future growth and the mitigation of risk. A major part of growth and risk prevention is ensuring that your intellectual property protects and adds value to your business.
Combining the Entrepreneurs’ Programme and comprehensive legal coverage of your intellectual property will promote productivity and collaboration and ensure your business is prepared and protected for future growth and expansion.
