SUMMARY:Acquisition Hour: Negotiation Strategies in Federal Contracting
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION FOR WEBINARS WILL CLOSE 24 HOURS BEFORE THE START \nNegotiating with the federal government can seem challenging and\, at times\, even frustrating.  Negotiators must not only be familiar with the positions and motivations of the Government\, they must also know and understand the rules and regulations that govern the negotiation process in federal procurements.  Further\, the scope of what is negotiable can vary.  Negotiations conducted as part of a pre-award competitive procurement for construction or for commercial items may be much more limited than the negotiations conducted for procurement of research and development or conducted in a sole source or post-award environment.  Join us and learn about negotiating with the federal government and how the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) could impact your negotiations. \nSpeaker – Helen Henningsen\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute \nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \nTo view a schedule of all upcoming webinars CLICK HERE.

SUMMARY:Acquisition Hour: Intellectual property for Government Contractors & Subcontractors & the STTR/SBIR Stakeholder
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION FOR WEBINARS WILL CLOSE 24 HOURS BEFORE THE START \nWhen 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. \nSmall businesses participating in the SBIR/STTR programs encounter those different types of IP and should have a good understanding of the rights to which the government may be entitled. For small businesses participating in the SBIR/STTR program it is important to understand Intellectual Property (IP) ‐ Patents\, Trade Secrets\, Trademarks\, and Copyrights \nCompanies 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\, understands its intellectual property rights. \nThis webinar will help you understand the many differences in property rights and help you ensure that you are only providing the government with what is strictly necessary. \nSpeaker: Laura Grebe\, Partner\, Husch Blackwell \nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \nTo view a schedule of all upcoming webinars CLICK HERE. \n
