Robin’s passion for IP commercialisation and decades of experience shone as he enlightened us on patents, copyright, how to apply to protect your IP, the time involved, the available resources for funding and advice and much more. The audience of over 20 were left contemplating their own IP protection strategies after Robin’s conclusion: “Don’t give away your IP carelessly!”

Thanks again to Robin for a much needed education into the importance of IP protection and commercialisation.

Before and after Robin’s talk, plenty of new connections were made and hands shook while Startup Tas members (and non members) networked over a drink, delicious sushi and my personal favourite, Thai pineapple stacks, in The Typewriter Factory’s very atmospheric co-working loft. It was great to see so many new faces hungry for startups in Tasmania bounce projects and ideas off one another.

If you missed out, get excited because we have another speaker event lined up for later this month! (details to come).

Our next networking meetup is breakfast at Jam Jar in Battery Point on the 21st of Feb from 7:45am. Hope to see you all there!

Dr. Robin Fieldhouse! https://startuptasmania.com/2013/02/last-day-to-rsvp-for-startup-series-event-on-ip-commercialisation-feat-dr-robin-fieldhouse/ https://startuptasmania.com/2013/02/last-day-to-rsvp-for-startup-series-event-on-ip-commercialisation-feat-dr-robin-fieldhouse/#comments Fri, 01 Feb 2013 02:17:07 +0000 Byron https://startuptasmania.com/?p=172549 RSVP for the event closes at the end of today so we thought we should remind everyone about our “Startup Series” event taking place 5:30pm next Monday at the Typewriter Factory.

For this first event, we have guest speaker, Robin Fieldhouse, introducing us to the world of IP Commercialisation which is sure to be an important and insightful talk on how to secure and commercialise your business idea.

And due to the number of emails sent to us about whether others can still attend the event after RSVP has closed, the answer is yes, you can still join us on Monday but the “At The Door” price will be $30 across the board, which means members will miss out on the $10 membership discount.

So join us on Monday and start making 2013 your year to get focused, learn how to commercialise your idea, get involved, meet other entrepreneurial like-minded individuals and become inspired!
