It's British IP Day! Today marks British Intellectual Property (IP) Day, a time to celebrate the huge contribution intellectual property (IP) makes across the UK both culturally and economically.
The day is led by the Alliance for IP and to celebrate they are hosting two events in the House of Commons, London. This afternoon creatives are invited to meet their Member of Parliament (MP) and this evening there will be a Summer Drinks Reception.
A number of ACG brands, parlimentarians and stakeholders from consumer groups and law enforcement will be taking part in the celebrations and Alison Statham, ACG Director General will be joining them.
Happy British IP Day everyone.
