The legal challenges of innovation, and how to deal with themMatthew Hunter
I was delighted to present to the itSMF (Singapore Chapter) Leadership Congress 2016 on this topic. I hope the slides are a helpful overview for those working on transformation/innovation projects. The slides are designed to be a useful starting place.
To introduce the importance of legal and regulatory issues to entrepreneurs
To consider the regulatory environments of the Asia–Pacific within which a new venture must exist
To examine intellectual property protection, including copyright, patents, trademarks and domain names
To recognise the important international protection regimes for intellectual property
To critically examine the IP practices of Asia–Pacific countries
To compare the common legal forms of business organisation in the Asia–Pacific, such as sole proprietorship, partnership and corporation
To be aware of the signals that foreshadow insolvency and bankruptcy
To examine the trend for environmental regulations that will affect business entrepreneurship
This chapter has a broad remit in considering the four types of legal and regulatory challenges that entrepreneurs will face in the Asia–Pacific region. We begin with a look at the various regulatory regimes that make up ease of doing business, from starting a company to closing it down. We then examine one of the most critical aspects for entrepreneurs: how to protect your intellectual property. Equally important is to then consider under what legal form to incorporate the firm. Finally, we look at regulations concerning climate change and global warming, regulations that are becoming increasingly troublesome for entrepreneurs. In typical legalistic style, we do need to note that the Asia–Pacific region includes many different countries and the scope of this text is limited to general knowledge. For specific information on legal matters particular to a country and your venture always seek the advice of appropriately qualified professional persons knowledgeable about the jurisdiction of your operations.

Startup Legal & IP (July2013 Founder Institute)Touraj Parang
Startup Legal Issues Facing Founders. From pre-formation, to incorporation, to IP strategy. What to expect to pay in legal fees and how to save money. Tips on hiring lawyers for your business effectively and efficiently. Technologies mentioned: Markify, http://upcounsel.com,

Intellectual property (IP) is the lifeblood of every knowledge-based start-up or venture. Learn how to identify and manage your intellectual property in a strategic way and examine how it fits in with your overall business model. A large part of your competitive advantage depends on your ability to protect and properly exploit or commercialize your product or service innovations. IP law provides the framework for protecting and commercializing these innovations.
It all starts with an epiphany. Every invention begins with a single “eureka moment” or some “brilliant revelation” that causes the inventor to take action.
These epiphanies become the idea seeds planted by inventors around the world. But we can only wish the process was as simple as adding water and fertilizer and waiting for the ideas to spring to life.
Inventions are not just patents to be hung on a wall. They are the starting point for a new business enterprise. So, not only does the inventor have to figure out how to create a working product or device, they also have to drive it forward, creating a business model that will enable it to survive. And that’s where we come in.
The Inventor Boot Camp will help you focus on what’s important. We will show you ways to leverage your time and resources, eliminate unnecessary work, and direct your energies towards driving your product forward. And most importantly, we will teach you what it takes to become successful.
Key Strategies to Learn
How to perform an early stage benefit/market analysis to decide in advance who your end customer will be. Once you fully understand who your customer is, only then can you begin to piece together your business model.
How to develop a profit-centric mindset, the same thinking used by most successful inventors, to maximize your odds of success.
How to decide if your invention needs to be patented. If it doesn’t, this can save you significant amounts of money.
Who you should be listening to. Advice will come from many sources, but not all of it will be good.
How to best position yourself for funding. Hear it directly from the people who have money to invest.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

in
one
country
may
differ
from
another.
b. If

§ Many
types
of
IP
are
“first
to

§ Disclosure
may
bar
the
filing
of
applica9ons

patents.
§ In
some
countries,
your
business
may
be
able
to
file
trade-‐mark
applica9ons
before
using
a
mark
–
may
prevent
“brand

§ The
“priority
rule”
may
allow
your
company
to
spread
its
legal
spend
over

8. Timing

Tips
§ For
patents
–
file
before
disclosure
unless
only
applying
in
Canada
and
USA.
Otherwise
cannot
file

§ For
trade-‐marks
–
file
“proposed

and
filing
any

§ Determine

§ Huge

18. Specific
Issues
in
Brazil,
China,
India
China
§ There
is
no
China
wide
IP
protec9on;
SARs
(Hong
Kong,
Taiwan,
Macau)
are
separate
from
Mainland
China.
§ Where
you
sue
in
mainland
China
can
make
a
difference;
legal
system
is
not
uniform.
§ Protec9onism
is
very
much
alive,
according
to
some.
19. Specific
Issues
in
Brazil,
China,
India
China
§ Obtaining
a
patent
can
be
very
difficult
e.g.
the
specifica9on
(descrip9on
of
the
inven9on)
must
closely
match
the
claims.
So,
if
your
company
intends
to
file
in
China,
the
patent
must
be
draned
accordingly.
§ If
you
can
obtain
a
patent
in
mainland
China,
it
is
rela9vely
easy
to
obtain
a
Hong
Kong
patent
based
on
the
mainland
patent.
20. Specific
Issues
in
Brazil,
China,
India
India
§ Where
a
trade-‐mark
applica9on
is
filed
can
make
a
difference
in
how
quickly
the
registra9on
is
granted.
So,
file
accordingly
depending
on
your
launch
date
in
India.
§ Li9ga9on
is
very
inexpensive
in
India
and
legal
costs
are
low.
So,
infringers
are
not
wary
of
li9ga9on.
