SUMMARY:Community Dinner & Brainstorm - Starters
DESCRIPTION:The Community Brainstorm is a collaborative brainstorm session\, where community members from various backgrounds come together to generate new ideas and potential solutions for specific problems and challenges their business is facing. It’s all about sharing each other’s knowledge and experiences\, challenging your assumptions\, and gaining new perspectives. We will meet in an informal setting and have dinner together. There is no agenda\, and the problems/topics of the session are generated by the participants themselves. A power think-tank that can result in solutions\, fresh ideas and new collaborations. We strongly believe that by bringing people together\, we can build a stronger community\, where members can support each other even better. We’d like to invite all our Start membership members to join this session – entrepreneurs who have recently decided to start their own business and haven’t started producing yet or only started producing recently.  \nAgenda17:45-20:30 – Community Dinner & Brainstorm \nRegistration Please RSVP for this session before February 19.

SUMMARY:Meet the Expert x Brand Protection
DESCRIPTION:Your brand is your company’s most valuable asset. It is much more than just a design or a logo. But did you know that without a valid trademark registration you can’t claim a right to your brand name or logo? That makes solid brand protection in the countries where you produce and/or sell your products essential. On the other hand\, brand protection in an area that is too wide leads to unnecessary risks and may even result in you losing your rights. In this “Meet the Expert” session you’ll have the opportunity to ask all your brand protection related questions in 1-on-1 sessions with the experts of Kilburn & Strode. You will get a 45 minute time slot to discuss the specific topics you are interested in. You will be able to ask questions such as:– What do I need to consider when choosing my brand name and logo?– Do I really need to protect my brand?– Is my brand safe once I get a trademark registration?– How does it work if I want to export to other countries?– How do I ensure that my trademark remains as strong as possible?– What can I do if I find out about a trademark violation?About the ExpertsKilburn & Strode is specialised in global Intellectual Property law\, in particular in the field of patents and trademark registration. They are protecting brands in the Netherlands\, but also in Europe and the rest of the world. Their specialised trademark attorneys have extensive experience in the field of availability searches\, application and registration procedures worldwide\, oppositions\, infringement cases and portfolio management in various industries\, including the food & drink sector. Diversity and inclusiveness are of paramount importance to Kilburn & Strode\, and a percentage of their profits is donated annually to innovative charities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is the expert from Kilburn & Strode that you’ll meet:– Marit Blom\, Trademark Attorney in the firm’s Hilversum office. She brings over 18 years of experience in the world of trademarks and designs. Registration for this session closes on February 12. Please submit the specific questions/topics you’re interested in when registering for the session.
