Excel in Health Series - Intellectual Property and Healthcare

Focussing on the specific needs of your business and exploring the growing priorities and change within the healthcare sector, this bespoke series of events aims to give you a better understanding of the complexities of the NHS and to accelerate the development of your innovation.

Intellectual Property and Healthcare

To understand the relationship between IP law and healthcare, it is important to understand what kinds of intellectual property can be protected and why.

Patents are vital to the healthcare industry and for fostering healthcare research. Without the patenting system, innovation would undoubtedly slow significantly. Without patents, other companies could easily profit from the inventor’s creation, significantly reducing their profits and eliminating the incentive to innovate. In this way, patenting contributes to a thriving research and innovative landscape.

Getting your Intellectual Property right is hugely important for a business wanting to protect it’s assets. This session will be delivered by specialist patent attorneys from HGF who have significant experience in advising SMEs about their intellectual property and providing the right IP solution.

There will be the opportunity for Q&A and networking after the presentations.

We look forward to welcoming you to the event.
