British Library logoThe British Library, located between Euston and Kings Cross stations in London, is running a packed programme of workshops on patents and other intellectual property topics in November.

The workshops are generally aimed at a small business audience, last a few hours, and are free. But they are often crowded -  advance booking is essential.

Here’s a list of selected topics - click for more on how to book.

Introducing trade marks & registered designs

Knowing your market

The library also holds a large collection of market research reports, fact sheets on starting different sorts of business, and a searchable database of patents. To use these you will need to get a reader pass, but this again is free.

These services are partly funded by the London Development Agency, but are available to anyone.
