Next steps

  1. Have you checked out the IP related workshops and events on the U of T Entrepreneurship (UTE) Event webpage?

Optional instructor-led workshops and panel events will be available throughout the term to provide additional learning opportunities with legal and industry guests. As new workshops become available throughout the term, we will let you know about these events and how you can register to attend. Although these workshops and events are not mandatory for successful completion of the program, we highly recommend that you attend at least once per term to increase your exposure to practitioners, thought leaders and entrepreneurs as they share personal advice.

For more information, please check out the UTE Events page.
