The Workshop
A handful of selected applicants will receive priceless knowledge and learn through experience from the top patent attorneys in the MedTech space. The workshop will feature exclusive content and hands-on simulation in mentored small groups.
Who Should Apply?
Promising scientists, engineers and physicians early in their MedTech / Healthcare career, with a burning desire to innovate & disrupt their field.
Why Apply?
Most first time entrepreneurs in Healthcare come from a technology / scientific background, and the issue of IP may be underestimated at the very early stages due to ignorance or lack of resources. Unfortunately, lack of IP understanding may cause catastrophic devaluation of the enterprise down the line. If you are looking to learn the basics of intellectual property for your current or future enterprise, the workshop will give you practical tools to tackle critical aspects of protecting your invention, from conception to market (or exit).
