Description
This Midday Masterclass is for business owners who want simple, practical tips to identify and use hidden assets (like patents, brand value, or unique systems) to grow their business. Most of a business’s value comes from intangible assets (like ideas, brand, and technology) — but these often are not used effectively. Learning how to recognise and protect these can help your business scale and attract investors.
