Is this course right for me?
The course is suitable for knowledge exchange and commercialisation professionals working in higher education or other public-sector research or NHS innovation environments. Delegates will have experience in technology transfer, but little practical experience of software commercialisation. The course is not intended for those with a degree in computer science or similar. It will be of most benefit to those who have already worked in technology transfer for at least three months.
Why should I attend this course?
The course will improve delegates' confidence and provide a framework of materials and contacts to refer to when software disclosures arise. Delegates also have the chance to hear from and question university software entrepreneurs at first hand.
What will I learn from the course?
-
A detailed understanding of the special eligibility rules for software patents
-
Appreciation of how software is built from components allowing reuse and sharing, and the specifics of licensing of software components
-
When software may constitute a medical device or diagnostic tool
-
An understanding of the concepts and jargon of software development in order to interact effectively with inventors
-
What questions to ask a software inventor at disclosure, and the implications of the answers for the prospects of the software
The course also focuses on networking, providing a valuable platform to meet peers, discuss best practice, and interact with the course team and other contributors.
PLEASE NOTE: There may be a requirement for delegates to undertake some pre-course work/reading before the course begins.
