IN-PERSON EVENT: Tech Growth Forum – Attract investment and gain a competitive edge

Tuesday 22 October 2024 @ 9:00 am - 11:30 am BST

Falling Walls | Glasgow City Innovation DistrictBirmingham Tech Week

 

As part of Birmingham Tech Week (21-25 October), join Marks & Clerk to learn how to attract investment and gain a competitive edge in the tech industry.

Understanding the commercial potential of intellectual property (IP) is vital for businesses seeking to turn innovation into profit. Businesses that have a clear IP strategy have a higher likelihood of growth, attract greater attention from investors and have increased revenue. This session will help you understand how to use intellectual property to protect the value of your business and how this can help you secure investment in the future.

Our speakers include an investor and the CEO of a successful tech business, who will share their insights on how to grow and attract investment. You will then be able to ask the speakers questions during the panel discussion.

There will also be the opportunity to book a free, confidential 1-2-1 chat with an IP expert at the IP clinic (to take place after the event).

The experts:

  • Glenn Fletcher, CEO of Tribosonics, a 2024 Tech Climber whose innovative sensing technologies are driving digital transformation.
  • Surjit Kooner, Investment Director at Midven, a venture capital firm who have invested more than £100m into early-stage businesses and startups to help grow some of the West Midlands’ most exciting businesses.
  • Philip Cupitt, Martin Hyden and Amy Dunn, Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys from Marks & Clerk, a specialist intellectual property firm.
