Overview
Understanding the intricacies of intellectual property (IP) is vital to innovators and investors. Deep tech companies win by out-innovating the competition and by building the best products, but they often rely on protective and preventive IP strategies. Despite this, there’s a fundamental knowledge gap between founders and legal strategists — we want to help fix that.
This seminar is an introductory guide into the world of IP applications and strategy, ranging from a basic outline on types of protection to specific offensive and defensive case studies. The session will outline the step-by-step process of filing, applying legal tactics, and maximizing when seeking licensing or acquisition.
