Understand when and how the government obtains rights in a contractor's intellectual property.
A company's intellectual property is one of its most important assets and can be a subject of difficult negotiations even in the commercial sector. Extensive regulation, however, increases the challenge when contracting with the federal government. Paired with the government's ever-increasing focus on contractor intellectual property, contractors unfamiliar with the regulatory scheme surrounding contractor intellectual property may unwittingly surrender rights to the government, compromising the value not only of a specific asset but also of the company as a whole. This topic will help government contractors understand when and how the government obtains rights in a contractor's intellectual property focusing on patent rights. This information is vital for any company considering its intellectual property a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
