Swing by and learn about IP Strategy for Tech startups -- and FREE LUNCH -- sponsored by Fenwick & West!
For technology startups, IP can literally make or break the company, from securing funding to increasing market value to waning off competition. Understanding the fundamentals is critical to making strategic decisions around your intellectual property and avoiding pitfalls that may unintentionally void rights to your hard-earned innovations. IP attorney Jason Amsel will cover patent basics, from putting early safeguards in place to protect rights to your innovations, applying for a patent, devising a patent strategy and building a portfolio, as well as provide an overview of trademark, copyright and trade secrets to help your startup reach and exceed its business objectives.
About Jason Amsel Jason Amsel is a resident of Austin, TX where he lives with his wife, three children, dogs, and two cats. For the past 10 years prior to moving to Austin, Jason lived and worked in Silicon Valley, where he helped build patent portfolios for companies such as Facebook, GoPro, Google, Honda, and many technology startups. Jason is happy to be a part of Austin’s thriving technology and startup community as it continues to grow.
