In 2011, spending by Apple and Google on patents exceeded spending on research and development of new products.

IP Matters. Do you know as much as you should?

 

Whether your a patent professional or a technologist, a strong understanding of patent matters is critical to your success. That's why we're starting the Patexia Web Series: an exclusive IP educational resource for Patexia members.

Designed to build the foundation of intellectual property knowledge, this first webinar will cover the basics of patents and prior art. It's going to be a valuable introduction for new researchers, but will also be of benefit to experienced members.

The webinar will give you:

  • The basics of patent research (types of patents, components, and patentability) so you understand what it really takes to get a patent;

  • an understanding of prior art, so you can compete with the best in Patexia's contests;

  • our favorite search tips, that might even give you a leg up on your next submission, or at work;

  • and more...

The webinar will last 20 minutes and we'll take questions afterwards.
