Register for webinar 'Why protect your invention?' - 16 December
Suppose you came up with a unique invention or innovation. Of course, you don’t want someone else to run off with it. You may need to protect it to ensure commercial control over it. But how do you protect your invention? Do you need to patent before publishing; how does that work in an academic environment? What are the benefits of patenting for researchers and their faculty? Which support and funding is available for patenting your innovation? These and related topics will be covered in the webinar on December 16 2021.
