This course introduces strategies for working with others in the supply chain. Topics covered include confidentiality agreements, IP for contracts, and managing trade secrets. We introduce the concept of IP Audits and when to carry these out. Commercialising IP involves working with others, and in IPC Part 2 we provide an introduction to finding markets for your invention, and consider competitor issues which may arise as you introduce new technologies into a market.
This course should appeal to those embarking on the commercialisation of IP through licensing, sale, or joint venture activities, and also those who may want to review their own procedures. The course is primarily focused on techniques applicable for managing and commercialising technologies which are patentable and considering approaches for different companies and situations. It may be relevant for those working in a wide range of roles, including Intellectual Property managers, IP Engineers, innovation managers, technology innovators and trainee patent and trademark attorneys.
Cost: £285 + VAT for half day course, manual and certificate of attendance.
