SUMMARY:IP Series #4: From Invention Disclosures to Issued Patents: An Inventor Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The process of obtaining a patent\, starting from the disclosure stage and continuing until issuance\, can be a challenging\, ambiguous\, and time-intensive experience for researchers. This panel session aims to provide clarity and guidance by exploring the process from the perspective of an active inventor\, Robert F. Shepherd\, Associate Professor at Cornell University. \nAs the leader of the Organic Robots Laboratory with over 30 invention disclosures\, 70+ patent applications\, and granted patents\, Shepherd has been recognized as an academic inventor and rising leader in his field. \nHe will share his experiences working with the Center for Technology Licensing and IP Counsels to protect his innovations and will reflect on research and commercialization impacts. \nPaul Roman\, Partner at Johnson\, Marcou\, Isaacs & Nix\, LLC\, will join him to provide a couple of examples from Shepherd’s IP portfolio and share best practices for successful patent applications. \nIf you’re a researcher looking to understand better the patenting process and your role in successful outcomes\, don’t miss this fourth installment of CTL’s IP Series. \nHosted by Ryan Luebke\, Technology Licensing and Business Development Officer at CTL. \n  \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:IP Series #5: IP Strategies for Protecting and Commercializing Biotech Inventions
DESCRIPTION:IP Strategies for Protecting and Commercializing Biotech Inventions \nThe fate of intellectual property (IP) as it applies to commercialization is intricately connected to Patent prosecution decisions\, and it can be sealed as early as the patent drafting stage. Understanding how patent law affects the scope of IP granted to the patentee and\, consequently\, the ability to commercialize the IP will inform inventors’ decision-making as early as experimental design\, i.e.\, even prior to patent application filing. \nJoin Yvonne Shyntum\, Partner at Pabst Patent Group\, and Eric Bryant\, Intellectual Property officer for the Center for Technology Licensing at Cornell\, for this presentation focusing on Biotech IP. \n  \nRegister here.

DESCRIPTION:For CTL New Ventures Series\, Kirsten Leute at Osage University Partners (OUP) will focus the session on how an entrepreneur or a faculty-entrepreneur can develop and deliver a pitch to gain interest and commitment from potential investors. \nPitching an early-stage science- and technology-based startup to potential funders can be intimidating. Learning how to tailor your presentation and understanding what motivates funders to say yes\, or at least not give you an outright no\, are important aspects of preparing for your initial pitch. This talk will be structured around OUP’s many years of experience in hearing pitches and reviewing pitch decks to provide insight on creating and presenting an initial startup pitch to funders. \nRegister now.
