FREE IP Café - IP Protection of software / computer simulations – Recent developments in European practice
Join us for a focused session on effectively protecting Computer-Implemented Inventions (CII) through patents, with a particular emphasis on software, AI, computer modelling and simulations. We will also explore the basics of software copyright protection and the corresponding financial incentives. This session provides updates on recent legal and regulatory developments, making it ideal for both returning participants of our previous sessions and newcomers. Whether you're interested in intellectual property (IP) for software, machine learning, or innovations across diverse technical domains—such as engineering, chemistry, and healthcare—this session will offer real-world examples and practical insights.
Who Should Attend:
Innovation and IP managers from start-ups, companies, research institutes, and universities involved in or exploring ways to protect their software and AI inventions
Computer scientists and engineers pursuing innovative projects
Any enthusiasts interested in this increasingly important area of intellectual property practice
