Intellectual property rights are at the heart of virtually every research collaboration between academia and industry, and the negotiation around IP is often complex, contentious, frustrating – and too often a deal-breaker. By gaining practical knowledge of the various situations that arise in these negotiations — and the creative solutions used to resolve them — you can dramatically increase the chances of resolving IP issues and establishing long-term relationship that bring critical benefits to both partners.
We’ve teamed with a pair of experts who have extensive experience on both sides of the table to provide their guidance in resolving thorny IP issues that can make or break a deal. Join DJ Nag, PhD, MBA, CLP, RTTP, President of Innovaito, LLC, and Tatiana Litvin-Vechnyak, PhD, Vice President of Technology Commercialization for Georgetown University, for this important program: IP Negotiation Strategies in University-Industry Partnerships: Perspectives from Both Sides of the Table, scheduled for this Friday, September 15.
This practical session will focus on arriving at a win-win strategy for resolving IP-related issues and structuring a deal that benefits both parties. The session will draw from the direct experiences of the speakers in handling sensitive situations, including a role-playing exercise in a mock negotiation to illustrate specific sticking points and showcase proven strategies for resolving them.
