Innovazione e valorizzazione. Dalla proprietà intellettuale al trasferimento tecnologico: prospettive internazionali e casi applicativi - Innovation and Intellectual property strategies. Research in patent databases. Practical examples and application.

18 gennaio 14.00-18.00- proprietà intellettuale (Ph.D G.C Piani) - lezione in italiano

The topic of intellectual property management and innovation processes is cross-sectoral. The focus will be both under the area of legal and economic protection and under the area of valorization strategies. The intersection of all these variables involves a not necessarily sequential approach and therefore the following will be examined, in particular: the legal profiles of intellectual property titles (patents, trademarks, know-how, design, copyright ...), the protection requirements, the duration, the national and international filing procedures (the Italian patent, the PCT , international extensions, nationalizations) and the international search report, the profile of the inventor and the ownership of the invention.

Insights on: patent prior art search and its various applications in the innovation process (freedom of operation); research databases (free or fee): application examples.

25 gennaio 14.00-18.00 - technology transfer and open innovation (Dott. Luca Escoffier) Seminar will be held in english

In this course we will understand concepts such as "technology transfer" and "open innovation", what "technology scouting" means and how it is implemented. We will talk about intellectual property and we will cover the world of patents which are among the most important intangible assets for companies and organizations.  We will talk about the different best practices for carrying out technology transfer operations, especially in the academic field and learn how to do open innovation at a company level and in the academic setting. We will try to understand how business etiquette can determine the good or bad outcome of a negotiation and we will try to change our way of thinking (and negotiating) to move from a person-centred approach to a holistic one.
