Intellectual property is a key aspect in most entrepreneurial undertakings. Unfortunately, academic entrepreneurs and innovators tend to overlook this fundamental factor.
In this webinar, Daniel Melman, a St. John’s University School of Law alumnus and partner at Pearl Cohen, a leading international law firm providing IP legal services to innovative companies across the world, will discuss different types of intellectual property protection mechanisms and their vital role in supporting entrepreneurial ventures undertaken by students and academicians. The IP Clinic, a new initiative created in collaboration between the Collins College and Pearl Cohen to support St. John’s academic entrepreneurs in assessing their IP needs, will also be presented.
