IP Master Class: Ownership for CEO’s

Who owns what?

This is a critical question for companies of all sizes when it comes to intellectual property (IP). Whether it’s an in-house development or collaborative projects with others, it is always advisable to have a legal framework in place to ensure proper ownership of IP. Otherwise, unexpected consequences and a range of issues around the management, administration, enforcement and commercialisation of the IP could develop.

Join Andrea Kroetch and Lionel Fishman as they discuss tips and strategies for reducing risk and securing ownership of your company’s IP.
