documentation
This guide will take you through the important Intellectual Property (IP) issues which should be considered at different phases of a startup’s journey.

The journey of a startup is not always a straight line. There may be many stops and starts and, sometimes, two steps forward and three steps back.

Each startup journey is unique, but we will explore six phases of this journey to show you how IP can help you take your product to market and beyond. The important terms have been highlighted and, if you click them, their definitions will appear.
