The Licensing Executives Society is delighted to announce its inaugural 1-day interactive course for professionals who create, protect, use and monetize technology intellectual property. The tri-city Certification Series is being scheduled for 18th Oct 2019 in Mumbai, 8th November 2019 in New Delhi and 15th November 2019 in Bengaluru. A non-residential program series offers an interactive 1-day course for professionals who create, protect, use and monetize technology intellectual property. Given the critical role that intellectual property (‘IP’) and intellectual property rights (‘IPR’) play in the global economy, this is an opportunity to gain insights into key aspects of taking IP and IP assets to the market. Intangible assets account for an increasingly larger share of enterprise value – driven by technology IP. This trend is accelerating with the introduction and adoption of software technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) across all industries, sectors and geographies. Understanding these IP implications is critical to professional success in the technology industry.
