The North Bay Chapter has graciously extended an invite to their virtual Lunch and Learn session: Boart Longyear Innovation & The Double-Edged Sword of Patent Protection presented by Chris Drenth.  Below is a synopsis of Chris’ presentation:

Join us for an insightful presentation on the intricate world of intellectual property, exploring the balance between “trade secret” and “patent protection” for your engineering innovations against potential threats from your competition. As an inventor named on several global patent families, Chris will dive into the advantages patents offer in safeguarding engineering creativity and fueling business growth, while also discussing the potential challenges and dilemmas when operating in a competitive products industry. Whether you’re a seasoned inventor, or simply curious about intellectual property protection, this talk will provide valuable insights and spark thought-provoking discussions. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to understand the complex dynamics of patent protection and its impact on engineering & innovation.

The presentation is scheduled for September 25th at 12pm. Following the presentation you will have the opportunity to participate in an interactive Q&A session with our speaker.
