Agenda
The UK is facing unprecedented levels of change. So how do top-tier organisations respond to such market disruption?
Leading brands like Apple, VW, Samsung and Roche view change as an opportunity for growth through new product development. They consistently invest a significant portion of their profit in R&D, setting a benchmark for others to follow.
In R&D intensive businesses, it’s crucial to protect and commercialise intellectual property, maximise R&D tax relief and price new products to optimise margins. This seminar will address these challenges with practical strategies and solutions.
This seminar will feature presentations from leading industry professionals who will share their expertise and approaches to gain competitive advantage and growth in a changing market.
Spaces for the seminar are limited, so we recommend you reserve your spot as soon as possible.
