Law Info for Your Small Business: 101

About the 6-7pm Workshop:

Join Carey Kulp, Senior Attorney at Volpe Koenig Law, on her insights of Small Business Brand Protection and Intellectual Property (IP). With just an hour of our workshop, we will be focusing on going from 0-1 on your small business. Why it is important to protect your brand and IP, and how to get it done! (Plus WHEN to get it done as a small business.) During the evening, we will use an example company, or we can use one of the companies present during the workshop, to talk about the ins-and-outs of what they can do to protect their brand!
