It is important for every researcher to understand how to protect their intellectual property and to be aware of how to assess the patentability of an invention, which can be an important step towards commercialising an idea. Researchers are invited to watch the recording of the Patent Information Reading webinar, which provides basic knowledge and practical information on the patenting process.
The webinar is moderated by Artis Kromanis, a European patent attorney with many years of experience in the field of intellectual property.
The seminar covers three key aspects:
the purpose of the patent information search, including the discretion analysis and the assessment of the patentability of the invention;
an introduction to patent databases, demonstrating how to carry out patent searches;
Analysis of patent documents to understand their validity and scope of protection.
