IP Quest teaches how to protect innovation and understand the strategic use of intellectual property rights. Using a unique learning platform based around a board game, this innovative approach creates an informal, vibrant atmosphere which encourages team building and learner engagement, so that this complex subject can be quickly absorbed. People who play this game obtain an insight into IP that is very difficult to obtain in conventional ways. The workshop was developed to train start-up businesses, and has since been expanded and used by Universities, SMEs, lawyers and entrepreneurs.
