Patents, and other forms of intellectual property rights, are an important factor to consider for any techstarter and innovative tech SME. Even for those not filing patent applications themselves. For instance, a competitor (even one with inferior technology) may undermine your business opportunities with a patent application.
In this webinar, we will use a fictional case study to address a number of common challenges and pitfalls. Including: How to handle a competitors patent? How to balance trade secrets and patent applications, also in view of funding/investor incentives? How to stay focused when you are building your innovation? What rights does a patent actually confer? And, what to do when a third party infringes on your patent rights?
After the fictional case study, there will be an opportunity to discuss questions and cases relevant to your own business in a group setting. As the webinar tool is not suited for this purpose, we will continue the session in a Zoom meeting from Briskr. Are you interested? Please submit your questions/cases with your registration and we will send you a Zoom login link by email.
