About us

Welcome to Careers In Ideas!

We’re an initiative created for anyone considering – or who might consider – a career in the world of Intellectual Property (IP), and for the people who support them in their choices: careers advisers, teachers and parents.

Importantly, we’re here to promote the full range of IP sector careers, including associated business support roles.

As well as this website, Careers in Ideas provides resources aimed at school, college and university students, career changers, and their advisers, to help explain and promote IP careers. We also offer resources to help existing IP professionals spread the word through, for example, careers fairs and talks.
