Sharing Intellectual Property While Preserving Rights
Wolf Greenfield Seminar, June 11, Boston
IP Communication Strategies and Protection Tools
BOSTON, MA — (Marketwire) — 05/08/09 — A free seminar on how to share intellectual property while preserving rights will be held by Wolf, Greenfield & Sacks, P.C., an IP law firm, on June 11 in Boston.
To generate ideas and investment, organizations need to share proprietary information internally and externally. But this can lead to loss of intellectual property exclusivity or even effectively relinquish ownership rights to others.
How does an organization disclose and leverage its intellectual property while preserving rights and keeping competitors and infringers at bay?
This seminar will detail IP communication strategies needed during the life of an invention from inception through commercialization. The panelists will cover
– Identifying and minimizing disclosure risks that can destroy IP rights
down the road
– Communicating safely with investors, universities, partners, and
consultants
– Using protection tools like attorney/client privilege, confidentiality
agreements, employee contracts, and trade secrets effectively
– Balancing the legal risks and business benefits of disclosure
