Patent Strategy, Litigation and Applicability for Academia

In this webinar, we will walk through the legal considerations surrounding patents, including strategy, litigation and applicability. This is of particular interest to tech transfer offices as universities across the US identify strategies to bring new technologies and products to market, as well as the risks. We will cover why patentability searches are necessary from both a defensive and offensive standpoint and review the intricacies of patent applications and patent analysis. We will review what the road to patentability entails and discuss positioning for patent litigation and the potential scenarios that a university tech transfer group may face.
