University IP Commercialisation Virtual Round Table Event
Burley Law hosted another University IP Commercialisation Virtual Round Table on Wednesday 30 June 2021. Once again, we were joined by a fantastic turnout of university representatives who collaborated in sharing their different perspectives on 3 topical issues, namely:
- The Changing Landscape for Knowledge and Innovation – post COVID and BREXIT.
- International Contracts – Law and Jurisdiction.
- GDPR and Data Continued – Changes and Challenges.
As usual there were excellent contributions from the attendees – with the Burley Law team on hand to offer their experiences, insight, and advice. There are many challenges to universities at the moment and it was helpful for institutions to share with one another how they are grappling with them. The evergreen hurdles around contracting internationally remain and more contemporary issues associated with laws around data were also covered.
The next event is planned for early next term where the group will reconvene for a session focused on spin-out related issues.
