'Maximising your IP Portfolio with 2020 Vision'

The organisers say:

We carried the 2020 theme over to this meeting: ‘Maximising your IP Portfolio with 2020 Vision’!!. In particular, we will be focusing on ensuring best practice in building and maintaining your IP strategy, maximising your IP portfolio for licensing and monetising, and using information published by others for 2020 vision.

We are delighted that many speakers originally booked for the 2020 meeting will deliver their talks for us in January via Zoom. So far, confirmed speakers are:

  • Robert Austin, Patent Information Analyst, Unilever PLC
    'Resistance isn’t futile: a searcher's experience of EPO oppositions'
  • Dr Nigel Clarke, Head of IP Knowledge Research, Future and Emerging Technologies Analysis, European Patent Office

CIIPM topics are built around our focus of using information to inform business decision-making for those developing and commercialising technology-driven IP businesses and we hope you will join us to keep the conversations going. There will be Q&A and themed discussion sessions on each day.
