The presentation emphasizes establishing clear ownership of intellectual property early in the invention and partnership process through upfront contracts.
This document provides an overview of intellectual property, including the four main types (patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets). It describes patents in more detail, including the different types of patents, time limits on protection, exclusive rights granted, criteria for patentability, costs associated with obtaining a patent, and benefits of patents. The document also reviews search strategies and tools for finding intellectual property information.
