Data Description: | An IP knowledge section which tested the respondent's familiarity with IP, a management section which sought to discover how firms were administering IP within their organisation and a final section which focussed on where IP information and advice was sourced from.

The results from each question are presented, broken down by business size and type if appropriate. Analysis based on the respondent’s answers to combinations of questions is shown to gain further insight into specific questions, as directed by policy colleagues within the IPO. |

Abstract
This report presents the findings from the third UK IP Awareness Survey completed in February - March 2015. The aim of the survey is to give an indication of the state of IP awareness in the UK across all sizes of firm and all sectors of industry. The level of awareness will help us to target business outreach across the UK. The 2015 IP Awareness Survey is an independent survey and isn’t comparable against previous IP Awareness Surveys.
