The Future is Here

We Care about the Small Players!

Are you a small business owner or entrepreneur in Canada? Are you frustrated with Canada’s intellectual property regime? If yes, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (and CanadaFashionLaw) wants to hear from you!

 The Canadian Intellectual Property Office (“CIPO”) is hosting a number of roundtable discussions across Canada in March dedicated to businesses that have less than 500 employees and have filed at least one patent or trade-mark application in Canada.

Essentially, CIPO wants to get input from the trenches on what’s working and what’s not working. This is a great opportunity for small businesses to help make the system work for them!

 Click here if you would like to register for one of the roundtable sessions?

Want to have your voice heard but can’t make it to the event, feel free to get in touch with CanadaFashionLaw and we can speak up on your behalf!
