Defining and executing an IP strategy which includes safeguarding its trade secrets and know how is key to any technology based organisation.  Learn how to identify, protect and extract value from these IP assets.

Patent and Know How Licensing

Learn which IP provisions are key to protecting your clients’ interests and how to exploit their intellectual property assets. We’ll be discussing licences and other agreements with licensing provisions, examining critical clauses and looking at real life examples to give you the skills you need to execute those key agreements.
