Intellectual Properties (IPs) in general and especially patents play an important role in innovation in any Hightech society. This topic is multi-faceted and can be accessed from different viewpoints e.g. business, politics, legal framework, organization, etc.

In this course, we will introduce IPs and patents in general and focus on the role of IPs and patents in research, development and (open) Innovation. Additionally, we will examine the patent exploitation through licensing contracts and patent pools and the patent policies in the European Union, China and USA.

During the course, the students will learn to understand the role of patenting in the Innovation process. By doing so, they will gain deeper insights into the roles of IP in various types of businesses and in different regions and contexts.

 

Registration via StudOn will be open from 27th September at 12:00 PM. The number of places is limited using first come, first served. Based on the number of limited places, participation in the lectures is highly recommended (mandatory).
