Trade secrets for Academic Startups, Pharma and Biotech Companies in the Life Sciences
October 15, 2024 @ 11:00 – 12:00 CEST
Welcome to this Drug Discovery Webinar, organized by OligoNova and SciLifeLab Drug Discovery and Development, to learn more about how academic and biotech interventions can be protected with the goal to benefit patients.
This webinar is an introduction to trade secrets as a form of intellectual property, with a focus on its potential importance to a life sciences start up.
Trade secrets are often an overlooked form of intellectual property, thought by many to be of little relevance in the life sciences. However, as part of a well-developed IP strategy, trade secrets have an increasingly important role to play, with the potential to not only supplement a patent-based strategy but, in some cases, to provide a more suitable alternative.
In this seminar, we will discuss how trade secrets can be identified, protected, and used to increase value and support investment.
