| | Review | Whenever a company is planning to develop and launch a new product, a major risk, particularly in technology sectors where there is extensive patenting, is that commercialization may be blocked by a competitor who holds a patent for a technology incorporated within that product.
In this series of IPSmart seminar, we will explore why and how companies can seek to secure their "freedom to operate" and to ensure that the commercial production, marketing and use of their new product, process or service does not infringe the IPrights of others.
