Understanding Patents
Learn all about patents in a course delivered in two modules. The first provides an overview of patents and patenting, while the second provides you with insight into the strategies relating to establishing and exploiting the patent system, as well as enforcing or attacking a patent.
Understanding Trademarks
Learn from Canadian, American and European practitioners about acquiring, managing and protecting trademark assets, as well as dealing with contentious proceedings.
Copyright Master Class
Copyright law has become a key consideration in our society and economy, as well as becoming increasingly complex. Legislators, courts, public institutions and businesses all struggle to address the impact of new technologies, new uses and new legal issues. Learn from some of Canada’s copyright experts and gain valuable insights into the impact of these changes, as well as practical steps to dealing with them.

Software Patents for AI & ML Technologies Webinar
Have you ever wondered whether software is patentable, what aspects of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) implementations are patentable, and who might be very active in patenting in that space? This webinar explores how to patent computer-implemented (i.e., software) inventions in the US and Canada, as well as provides a global perspective on AI patent filing trends and explores aspects of an intellectual property (IP) strategy for AI/ML technologies, such as maintaining trade secrets versus patenting.
