How can your business take advantage of tax relief and protect your intellectual property? Immerse UK releases a recording of its briefing event, in partnership with Sheridans, giving an overview of this business-critical area of activity.
Tax relief schemes and intellectual property can be complex and difficult to understand for creative SMEs working in the immersive tech sector (virtual, augmented and mixed realities). But by increasing understanding and integrating into business strategies can significantly help businesses to bring a sense of commercialisation to thrive and grow.
In January 2019, Immerse UK teamed up with leading media law firm, Sheridans to organise an event to demystify the world of tax and intellectual property (IP) and highlight how SMEs can take advantage of schemes that are designed to help businesses within the creative industries – as well as protecting your rights.
