SUMMARY:Federal Market Insights [FMI]: IP\, Data Rights\, and Federal Awards: What Every Company Should Know
DESCRIPTION:FEDERAL MARKET INSIGHTS [FMI] is an informal podcast designed to provide valuable information about the government marketplace for businesses interested in government contracting. Each episode is a concise 30-minute session\, scheduled during the noon hour on Tuesdays. We review noteworthy items published during the week\, delve into key topics\, and offer background information and perspectives relevant to the government contracting landscape. Stop by\, settle in and take in the conversation. \nIntellectual Property rights can arise through the performance of a SBIR/STTR award\, during performance of a federal award and may involve what is stated in a proposal and even what is shared via an Unsolicited Proposal. Companies doing business with or interested in doing business with the government need to consider if there is Intellectual Property involved and what governs ownership and use. We will provide a non-legal overview of SBIR/STTR IP\, FAR Part 27 and DFARS Part 227 with a brief summary of Data Rights issues. This is an interesting and important area that is well worth listening in to this week’s podcast to explore. \nPresented by Marc Violante\, Director\, Federal Market Strategies\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute and Mark Dennis\, Government Contract Specialist\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute \nFor the list of Federal Market Insights webinar\, please click here.

DESCRIPTION:FEDERAL MARKET INSIGHTS [FMI] is an informal podcast designed to provide valuable information about the government marketplace for businesses interested in government contracting. Each episode is a concise 30-minute session\, scheduled during the noon hour on Tuesdays. We review noteworthy items published during the week\, delve into key topics\, and offer background information and perspectives relevant to the government contracting landscape. Stop by\, settle in and take in the conversation. \nSBIR and STTRs topics are defined by a potential federal customer. The topics are areas in which they have an interest. What if you have an idea but do not see a topic? One path to consider may be to submit an Unsolicited Proposal (FAR 15.6). Another option which is associated with the SBIR/STTR program is to submit a Project Pitch to the National Science Foundation (NSF). We’ll discuss the Project Pitch framework\, requirements\, limitations and next steps required for Pitches that are accepted. \nPresented by Marc Violante\, Director\, Federal Market Strategies\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute and Mark Dennis\, Government Contract Specialist\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute \nFor the list of Federal Market Insights webinar\, please click here.
