Startup Business Essentials: Growing Smart: Legal Strategies That Protect Your Business

09/08/2026 08:30 AM - 10:00 AM PT

Description

 

In today’s competitive business landscape, protecting your brand and innovations is essential to maintaining a strong market position. But how do you safeguard the intangible assets that set your product or service apart? And how do you prevent competitors from replicating your work, intellectual assets, and proprietary know-how?

Intellectual property (IP) protection is critical for companies in every industry. Whether you operate in technology, manufacturing, retail, healthcare, consumer goods, or services, IP rights can help secure the value you've built into your offering, from product design and processes to branding, marketing, and unique business methods.

Join us on Tuesday, September 8th at 8:30 am for a discussion with Parna Mehrbani, Partner at Tonkon Torp, on the vital role IP protection plays in defending brand identity, driving innovation, and creating long-term business value across industries.

Session Focus:

  • Trademarks: Protecting brand names, logos, and slogans
  • Trade Dress: Safeguarding the visual appearance of products or packaging
  • Copyrights: Covering original content, software, and creative assets
  • Trade Secrets: Preserving confidential business information and know-how

No matter your sector, understanding IP is key to protecting your business.
