Intellectual property is one of an institution’s most valuable - and often misunderstood - assets. In this webinar we explore the fundamentals of IP (including trade marks, copyright and designs), sector‑specific challenges for academic and charitable institutions, and the key questions organisations should be asking about protecting and commercialising their IP. We also cover collaboration and government policy themes, preparing for commercialisation and spin‑outs, managing IP risk, and navigating licensing arrangements — from royalties and audits through to termination and post‑signing actions. A practical session for institutions looking to maximise value while managing risk.
