Q Founder Seminar: Patent Strategy Pitfalls
Off-Campus - 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Patent Strategy Pitfalls
Safeguard your innovation by avoiding the missteps that can cost you.
Patents are a cornerstone of protecting breakthrough technologies and building long term value. Yet too often, founders and researchers overlook critical details missing filing deadlines, disclosing too much too soon, or failing to align IP protection with business goals. This session will help you anticipate and avoid common pitfalls, ensuring your patent strategy strengthens rather than undermines your venture.
Lunch will be provided.
Please register by September 10 to help us plan appropriately for catering.
This is a closed in-person event, open to the Northwestern community (students, staff, faculty and affiliated startups). Please register using your university or startup email address.
