IP-Seminar 2022
SCS Seminar on Intellectual Property (IP) 2022 – Hands-on Workshop for Scientist in Chemistry and Life Sciences
The SCS Seminar on IP 2022 took place on Nov 7-8 and focused on researchers, technology transfer managers, and others which are required to deal with life science related intellectual property, in particular patents. The lectures and workshops enhanced the participants' capabilities to assess and manage patent related novelty, inventive step and freedom-to-operate risks. The two days also provided a platform to exchange practical experience on IP management and form a network that can now be actively used after the seminar.
