Harvesting Invention: Unlocking Innovation and Creating Enterprise Value *

View Session Speakers

CLE*A comprehensive invention harvesting program is a powerful tool to drive innovation by identifying what team members are working on and capturing the most valuable ideas, and translating those ideas into assets.  But even highly innovative enterprises may struggle at times to tap the full creative potential of their innovators. Without taking deliberate and concrete steps to support and nurture invention-harvesting programs, efforts may bear limited fruit.

This panel will discuss approaches to invention harvesting, impediments and roadblocks to invention harvesting, and best practices. Among other things, the panel will discuss how invention harvesting can successfully be rolled out, how strategic opportunity can be identified through monitoring the competitive landscape, tools and best practices that allow in-house counsel and IP managers to streamline invention capture, and the importance of taking an introspective look that focuses on future goals, core competence and the existing research and development already in the pipeline.
