What do entrepreneurs, business managers and engineers need to know to effectively and efficiently navigate the current patent system? A panel of successful business leaders from local tech companies will share their experiences about how to build a high value patent portfolio, avoid common pitfalls, minimize costs, and how to use a well-executed intellectual property strategy to take command of new territory, defend market share, and increase a company’s valuation. Topics also include protecting your inventions during the start-up process, key agreements for entrepreneurs, obtaining patents quickly, how granted patents can attract capital, and a case study of an extreme-value patent portfolio.
