Inventions created by scientists can be protected by filing a patent via the technology transfer office of the University. Within this afternoon talk we address basic questions like what a patent actually is and which inventions are patentable. We will discuss the advantages of protecting your invention by a patent such as opening the opportunities for cooperation with industry partners and facilitating acquisition of third party-funds. Being an employee of the University of Vienna, you will also receive inventor’s remuneration upon successful commercialization of your invention. Within this Afternoon talk experts from the technology transfer office and an external expert from the patent office will share their knowledge and experiences (speakers to be announced).
