Rhys Roberts and Charlotte Ward will help you to build an Intelectual Property ready for the growth of Startups through licensing and partnership. In this workshop, Rhys and Charlotte from 2Bio, UK, will explore what should a researcher or startup consider when building their product IP, namely with a patent. They will explain what is important to consider not only to guarantee that the patent is granted, but that it is robust enough to pass a due diligence in a future license or partnership agreement. Do you have a patent? Check what should you do further to make sure it is valuable in the market. Are you filling for a patent? Learn what you should you check to prepare for the future.
