Have you ever wondered what it really takes to protect your creativity and build a fashion brand with strong foundations?

Join Fashion Minority Report CIC and Sheridans for an interactive coffee morning designed especially for start-up and small fashion businesses who want to feel more confident about the legal side of their work.

From contracts and collaborations to intellectual property and common pitfalls, you’ll gain practical insights that can help your business thrive.
