We had a lovely time at the AmCham New Zealand-DHL Express Success & Innovation Awards where we were nominated as a finalist in the Bilateral Connections with the USA category.

Khushbu Sundarji recently wrote an article for the Corporate LiveWire Handbook about the protection of intellectual property in franchising. Intellectual Property is the foundation of the franchise system so it is important that franchisors ensure that all intellectual property is protected before they start franchising. #corporatelivewirehandbook #franchising #franchisinginnewzealand #commercialcontracts #intellectualpropertyinfranchising
