FACT is the UK’s leading intellectual property protection organisation.
Established for over 30 years, FACT is at the forefront of the fight against intellectual property crime in the UK and internationally, specialising in protecting both physical and digital content.
Intellectual property (IP) crime is a global problem and is costing the UK economy hundreds of millions of pounds each year. Recognised as the leaders in tackling IP crime, FACT’s work is vital in ensuring digital and physical content is protected and businesses continue to flourish.
As the popularity of the internet continues to grow and technology advances, businesses must take a pro-active and comprehensive approach to fighting IP crime. FACT’s role in successfully detecting and targeting those involved in IP crime, also requires the ability to foresee and be aware of the technological changes that are constantly occurring.
