Two CIIPM training classes take place at Homerton College Conference Centre, Cambridge, on Wednesday, 14th March 2018.
The morning class is ‘IP and Commercialisation’ – a class which was first held in October 2017, and which gives a basic understanding of how to develop, commercialise and manage IP. Topics include using NDAs, building an IP strategy, preparing an IP policy, and IP matters relating to employees, contracts and confidentiality agreements. The training will consider IP management, and provide a framework for establishing a robust practice in house. A Practical session enables attendees to put their learnings into action.

The afternoon class is ‘Freedom to Operate (FTO) Search & Analysis’, and this covers the different aspects of searching, retrieval, and analysis of patent documents needed to ensure freedom to operate on developed technology. Attendees will gain an understanding of how to construct and perform business focussed patent searches and how to analyse the results for reporting. Bring your lap top to join in with the practical patent search opportunities to support the FTO training.
