Client: Well you need to understand that when I was growing up my father was an alcoholic and I had to be the man of the family. Now that I have my degree and accountancy qualification and my father has been made redundant, I want to get him back on his feet again. Here is another. Me to client: So what brought you here from Ghana? Client: My father was a senior civil servant but got the wrong side of those in power and was killed. My 5 brothers and sisters all had to leave the country for our own safety. These are both situations I encountered soon after offering one to one business advice clinics the Business & IP Centre.

- Mandy Haberman, Founder, Haberman Associates Mandy set about designing the Haberman Feeder which is used in hospitals throughout the world.

Mandy was British Female Inventor of the Year 2000 and won the Design Effectiveness Awards 2000. Having successfully enforced her intellectual property rights through the courts, she has become an avid campaigner for improvements in the patent system. 'As an independent inventor and entrepreneur, I know it is essential to research and protect your patent. The Business & IP Centre houses intellectual property information and expertise which can demystify the patenting process and save you money on lawyers' fees.‘ Adam Pritchard, Founder, RJA foods Adam had the ingenious idea of developing a juice drink from pomegranates. To make sure the rest of the world thought it was a great idea, too, Adam used the Business & IP Centre to research the market for juice. 'I had no background in food and drink, so I researched the fruit and its health properties and how it might be processed, then learned more about the juice market in the UK.' Using the Library for this detailed research clearly paid off. 'Pomegreat' juice is now sold through major supermarkets and Adam's company has an annual turnover of £5 million. Imtaz Khaliq, Bespoke Tailor, Imtaz Regarded as London's first female tailor, Imtaz Khaliq is one of the UK's leading lights in the new couture tailoring movement, and an avid user of the Library's business resources.

Imtaz enjoys a high-profile client base, having designed for pop star Dina Carroll, actress Michelle Pfeiffer, newsreader Kay Burley and supermodel Tatjana Pattiz. The Business Blog - Live
