About this Event
Innovators want answers to two important questions: “Can I get a patent?” and “Can I take my technology to market?” The analysis for each question is very similar, but the difference in the question being asked that can produce different, and sometimes surprising, answers.
This HYBRID event is offered in-person at the Lobo Rainforest Building and virtually via Zoom.
Lunch will be provided for in-person attendees.
