Memorial’s Research Innovation Office (RIO) invites you to join us for a coffee break with Noel Courage, a patent attorney with Bereskin & Parr LLP, one of Canada’s leading intellectual property law firms. His practice involves patenting and collaboration agreements for innovations. Noel will give a presentation about best practices (and maybe a few worst ones) for protecting IP in your R&D and business collaborations. We will open the floor for a Q&A discussion about key collaboration issues that come up in academia and the start-up world.

RIO has also arranged a limited number of complimentary one-on-one meetings with Noel. Please contact us if you would like to schedule an appointment for an individualized discussion about your IP.

Please sign up by Eventbrite or email rio@mun.ca.
