IPI Technology Commercialisation Workshop

IPI Technology Commercialisation Workshop is engaging interactive educational

With increasing attention on generating returns from R&D investment, there is a growing interest to understand the role of technology transfer, mechanisms and best practices to bring Intellectual Property (IP) to market.
The workshop on Technology Commercialisation offers a practice-oriented and hands-on approach to commercialising new technologies. The course takes participants through a step-by-step process of evaluating new technologies or inventions, understanding the form and merits of different IP protection, familiarising with different go-to-market strategies as well as understanding technology valuation and licensing.

Different types of research collaboration and IP models will be discussed to support industry, university and/or government agency collaboration. Using real-life case studies, the course will provide rich insights into the challenges in technology commercialisation and offer practical tips, tools and platforms to support successful commercialisation.

This is a hands-on workshop. Please bring along your internet-accessible laptops for both days as practical assignments will be carried out during the sessions. Wifi access will be available.
