Unmuhbarru.ac.id, Barru – Webex webinar: Leveraging Patent Information for Impacting Your Research and Innovation Breakthroughs.
Higher education plays a vital role in solving real world problems by preparing future professionals who can innovate and create, conducting impactful research, and engaging with a network of research partnerships to address local, national, regional, and global challenges.
Patent information provides access to scientific and technical data from patent applications and granted patents, which can help identify technology gaps and opportunities for innovation. It also helps researchers and faculty members keep up with the latest developments and innovations in their fields, fostering a culture of continuous learning and ensuring that academic work stays relevant and cutting-edge. Patent information is a useful resource for conducting comprehensive literature reviews and avoiding accidental infringement on existing intellectual property. It also helps universities navigate the complex landscape of intellectual property rights, promoting responsible and ethical research practices.
Additionally, patent information can help universities find potential opportunities for collaboration with industry partners, facilitate technology transfer, and support the commercialization of research outcomes, ultimately enhancing the economic and societal impact of academic institutions.
In this webinar, we will discuss how academicians and innovators can use curated information to:
- Track the latest developments in a specific field of technology.
- Assess the patentability and novelty of inventions.
- Prevent duplication of research and development work.
- Stimulate new ideation and encourage more innovation.
We will also discuss why curated patent information is more valuable than other sources of information and how other universities have used patent information for their research.
