Program Description

This workshop is built for engineers, entrepreneurs, and innovators who want practical skills in navigating the patent landscape. We’ll focus on how patents really work—what makes an invention patentable, how claims define the boundaries of protection, and how to use patent searching to see if your idea is already out there. You’ll gain hands-on tools to evaluate whether an idea is worth protecting and how patents can be leveraged to support technical and business goals. The emphasis is on giving you the knowledge to make informed decisions so you can create real value for your company or startup.
