About this Event
Spotlight: Protecting your Idea – An Introduction to Intellectual Property.
Everyone owns the right to their own creativity so knowing what’s protected in your business and what’s not is essential. Intellectual Property (IP) is any original creation that can be bought or sold. If you are a business person, an inventor, an artist or an author, IP will affect you.
In this session we’ll focus on four key areas of intellectual property: design, patent, copyright and trademark. There will be an introduction of each area with some discussion of how to recognize your IP and how best to protect it. We will then discuss some of the difficulties faced such as concepts and methodologies, with a Q&A to finish.
This is one of a series of free Spotlight bitesize business courses that are run by the BIPC Norfolk, Norfolk & Norwich Millennium Library. Booking is essential.
You do not need to visit the library to attend, details of how to join this online event will be sent out nearer to the event itself.

Building Customer Relationships

In this Spotlight business workshop experienced MENTA business trainer and businessman John Clarke shares some very simple tools and techniques to do just that, so that we can deliberately and consistently put the customer at the heart of all we do.
This one hour session is free but booking is essential.

Looking at the numbers: Re-adjusting and re-assessing your cost base
It’s very easy for us to ‘do what we’ve always done’ and expect to ‘get what we’ve always got’! In these challenging and turbulent times though, it is crucial to take a step back and re-evaluate whether we are doing things in the most efficient and effective manner.
At a time when growing income can be so tough, this session gives you time and opportunity to re-assess your business, your plans and/or ideas to ensure you have the right balance with your financials and look at ways you might improve your cost base.
This is one of a series of five workshops – you’ll find details of the others on our main Eventbrite page.

The Purpose is a free to attend meetup with the goal of supporting and helping our businesses, communities and families thrive.
The Purpose Meetup is for small business owners that want to increase their connections, share knowledge and grow their business. The group is fully funded by NatWest Entrepreneurship and open to any business regardless of size or trading history. The group aims to build on the Rose Review into female entrepreneurship and support business owners across the East
So, what makes The Purpose different from “Networking”
“Networking is about sharing, not taking. It is about forming trust and helping one another toward goals. Regularly engaging with your contacts and finding opportunities to assist them helps to strengthen the relationship. By doing this, you sow the seeds for reciprocal assistance when you need help to achieve your goals.”
Networking can be a room full of sellers, with no interest in supporting you or your business. Are they there for themselves, you or is it the free coffee and biscuits…? Have you experienced that moment when a shiny new business card is thrust into your hand and how did it make you feel?
The Purpose is not a traditional network group with 60 second pitches. Don’t panic if you don’t have one prepared!
The Purpose Meetups are structured to engage participants, encourage free thought and knowledge exchange. Most importantly, we want everyone involved to take away a positive action for their business or life. Even as a group, we all have a voice and we can all learn from collective experience.
What can I expect when joining the event

Take your business to the next level with a 90 day plan
About this Event
Small businesses are the engine of the UK economy and account for 60% of all private sector jobs and £1.75 trillion of revenue. Here at NatWest we want to help local businesses scale and grow into the big firms of tomorrow. One tool that helps successful businesses of all sizes is a 90 day plan.
In this session we explore what a 90 day plan is and how you can use it to grow your business with specific individual actions. At the end of the presentation you will take away your own 90 day plan which you have built for your business. Our presenters for this series of events are Phil and Rob from the Business Growth Coach network
