It is not uncommon for executives contracting with the federal government to grant broad licenses to valuable, proprietary technology without knowing: (1) the scope of what was granted; and (2) the steps that can be taken to avoid giving away the "crown jewels."
This one day seminar is designed to help contractors protect their valuable computer software, patents, and technical data rights. Its focus is on:
- License negotiation.
- Contractor options, rights, and responsibilities.
- "Traps for the unwary," highlighted by recent case law.
- Remedies for the government's misuse of protected information.
