BIPC celebrating 20 years of supporting UK entrepreneurs

The British Library’s Business & IP Centre (BIPC) is celebrating 20 years of supporting UK entrepreneurs. Since opening in 2006, the BIPC has helped hundreds of thousands of people start and grow businesses, expanding into a network of more than 70 library-based centres nationwide. With support from the Intellectual Property Office, the BIPC provides free guidance, training and resources on areas including trade marks, patents, market research and business planning. Each year, over 40,000 people benefit from workshops, webinars and one‑to‑one advice, with over 90% still trading after three years. The BIPC also offers toolkits, events and access to its Reading Room in London.
