Train the trainers conference and web portal
Own-it is working with the Centre for Competitive Creative Design, an interdisciplinary partnership between LCC (London College of Communication) and Cranfield University, on a pilot IP training and e-learning project aimed at creative business trainers and HE education professionals. It will provide tailored IP support to those professionals advising and guiding businesses that are innovation based and have IP at the core. We will be developing e-learning resources and case studies on a brand new web portal, and we will be producing two conferences to provide a platform for debate on best business practice and new developments in IP management relevant to the creative sector.
