Had a "eureka" moment? Then maybe you should think about patenting your idea. Applying for a patent, if granted will allow you to stop others from making, using or doing just about anything with your idea without your permission. A granted parent can protect your idea for up to 20 years once it is in force.

It’s worth bearing in mind however, that there are some strict rules about what can and can’t be patented. We have posted a link to the businesslink.gov.uk website which can help you decide whether a patent is right for your idea.

Hi all,

If you're interested in finding out more about patents and 'Safeguarding your IP assets' then it might be worthwhile having a read of
this new business article.

Here is a quick snapshot of the contents:

'With the patenting process, maintaining confidentiality is vital, especially in the early stages. If you think a patent may be relevant to your invention, you should not disclose it to others without having a confidentiality agreement in place. Also, unless you're a real expert you'll need professional help.'

I hope you all find the article both interesting and useful

Many thanks
