BioAlberta is proud to co-host sessions in Edmonton and Calgary presented by the law firm of McCarthy Tétrault. The seminar will provide invaluable information regarding strategic business management of intellectual property with a focus on how life science companies can balance between scope of patent protection and available resources.
Anita Nador and Vincent Yip of McCarthy Tetrault will discuss a myriad of issues around patent protection:
  • Determining whether to file or not to file
  • Managing patent portfolios strategically in view of available resources
  • Differentiating between patent claim types and their scope of protection
  • Monetizing patent portfolios
  • Managing risk of patent infringement
  • Structuring research collaboration and co-development agreements with a view to patent ownership and cost sharing in such arrangements
The speakers will also discuss issues around trade-mark and trade secret protection as part of a life science company's general intellectual property protection strategy.
