Acquisition Hour – Intellectual Property and Government contracts – Implications of Alice on Protecting IP when Contracting with the U.S. Government

Join the Wisconsin Procurement Institute and guest speakers for the WPI ACQUISITION HOUR – a series FREE LIVE WEBINARS on a variety of Federal government contracting topics! 

Event Description:

When doing business with the Federal Government you (the contractor) may encounter situations where the government is entitled to receive intellectual property rights.  The scope of government rights in a contractor’s intellectual property depends primarily on the type of intellectual property at issue, specifically, whether the intellectual property is a patent or patentable intellectual property, copyrighted material, or rights in technical data or computer software.  Companies should not shy away from business opportunities with the government out of fear they will lose valuable intellectual property rights. However, it is critical that a company seeking to do business with the government, either as a prime or subcontractor, understand its intellectual property rights.  This webinar will help you understand the many differences in property rights and help you insure that you are only providing the government with what is  strictly necessary. 

Speaker: Laura Grebe is an associate for Whyte Hirschboeck Dudek S.C.
