SCORE Partner Webinar-How to Trademark Your Business Brand

Thursday, December 8, 2022 - 1:00pm to 2:00pm
Price: 
FREE

Is your brand name, slogan and logo safe from being stolen? Do you know if your brand name, slogan or logo is unique and isn’t used by another business? Trademarking and registering your brand identifiers can protect them legally and keep you from using names, symbols and phrases that are already claimed.

In this webinar, our expert presenter will explain what all entrepreneurs, small businesses, and start-ups need to know about trademarks.

You’ll learn:

  • What is a trademark, and what can you trademark
  • The benefits of federal trademark registration
  • How to select a trademark that is both federally registrable and legally protectable
