The Anatomy of a Licensing Deal
Do you view your invention as a potential
medical product that can be used worldwide to help patients?
In many cases, that product begins with the license
from an academic center to a company. Attend this seminar
and learn how a license is negotiated from the perspective
of the inventor, company representative and patent attorney.
To help you understand the process fully, a multi-million
dollar Cleveland Clinic license will be deconstructed
and examined in detail from each participant’s
perspective.
