Patents for Technology Transfer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798390508565)

Patent protection is an important first step in safeguarding new inventions and technologies prior to further development and commercialization. It can be difficult for the non-expert to judge what is potentially patentable, and to understand the process and timelines of securing protection globally. This book provides guidance to those seeking to improve their understanding of the patent system and work constructively with patent attorneys to optimize a patent portfolio. The book is aimed in particular at patent managers in the technology transfer offices of universities and research institutions, but will be useful also to those in industry IP departments looking for practical advice and instruction on patent issues. The first edition was reviewed by IPKat blog in June 2017: "Patents for Technology Transfer is a useful book for TTOs managers working at universities and research institutes. From a strategic approach, it provides a clear overview of the theory and practice of patent law as well as useful tips for the management of the patent portfolio at TTOs, with the aim to maximize the results derived from technology transfer." This second edition is updated on topics including the introduction of the Unitary Patent.
