In the world of business, dreams are the seeds from which great ideas grow. For small businesses, these dreams drive innovation, growth and success. At IP Australia, we recognise the power of dreams and the importance of protecting the unique ideas they inspire.
To help small businesses find the resources they need, we teamed up with our government partners to create the ‘Small Business, Big Dreams’ fact sheet, which outlines a typical business journey – transforming a business idea into a market-ready venture. It provides details and links to free programs and resources available to support small business at every step of the journey.
It includes essential steps such as checking readiness to start a business, identifying and protecting intellectual property (IP), collaborating with other businesses, and accessing funding opportunities. Additionally, it provides information on managing tax and superannuation obligations, developing marketing strategies, and ensuring compliance with workplace laws.
Equip your small business with this useful fact sheet: 'Small Business, Big Dreams'.
