Event invitation: Marine Industry News are introducing a new online talk series aimed at highlighting the roles of women in the British Marine industry and I am honoured to have been invited to be their first speaker.

Join us on 25th February 2021 at 11am UK time for a wide-ranging discussion about how Oscar and I started TeamO Marine and overcame more obstacles than an 400m Olympic sprint hurdler. We’ll be covering some of the following and there will be an opportunity to answer questions at the end:

• How do you take a good idea from concept through to reality.
• How to find out which regulations and standards your product probably needs to comply with.
• Protecting yourself: How to choose a good lawyer. How to decide if your idea is worth patenting or trademarking. Do you need an NDA?
• How to make the world care about your new product when it is technically innovative but complicated to explain.

The event is free but you need to register in advance. Please follow this link for full details.
