Businesses are built on ideas.
Ideas are vital. They form the basis of everything new in business; cutting-edge research, product development, ad campaigns, strategy, new efficiencies... the list goes on. Without new ideas, we don't progress as a society. And many ideas are very valuable. People have often stolen them in the past. We are here to fix that.

Membership
Membership
Membership is available to qualified members of a recognised professional association. Ideas Union membership allows the professional to lodge Comcepts™ into our global registration system, meaning they can then share valuable ideas with confidence, insist on getting paid fairly, and this in turn is expected to help bring many more great ideas to market.
As a member, you gain access to all IU services. Each Comcept™ is at a set fee. Your Comcept™ is supported by a structured record of its creation and disclosures, secure vaulting, and our legal team's enforcement strengthening your negotiations and protecting you if litigation is required.
**A Comcept™ (Commercially Valuable Concept) is any idea, design, strategy, brand positioning, process or other innovation that creates commercial advantage and can reasonably be sold or licensed.
Who We Serve: Professionals Only.
Who We Serve: Professionals Only.
We protect those whose professionalism is beyond question. The Ideas Union currently is only open to qualified members of professional associations. We make this distinction as members of professional associations come with qualifications, years of experience, and industry-recognised expertise.

Who We Are
Who We Are
Ideas Union was founded in 2025 by a collective of professionals tired of taking business ideas or opportunities to larger players and having valuable Comcepts™ stolen by that company. We decided we'd had enough. Things had to change.
Our Values
Our Values
Fairness: We aim for outcomes any reasonable person would call fair.
Originality: The originator of a concept deserves a substantial share of the reward/profit.
Mutual Value: Deals work when both sides see value; royalties, flat fees, revenue share, whatever you agree.
Autonomy: Members decide if, how, and to whom you license your Comcept™.
No Agreement = No permission = NO USE.Privacy by default: Ideas Union won't view your information unless you ask us, or a court requires it.
Professionalism: Ideas Union membership is only open to recognised professionals.
