P.J. has kindly offered to join us and deliver a presentation on licensing which will cover some of the following areas of licensing:
• how to go about licensing a product or service with intellectual property or property know how
• what should be included in a licensing agreement e.g. terms / duration / conditions covered
• Issues such as:
o Licensee Vs Licensor
o Marketing
o Distribution
o Production and quality standards
o Who keeps the patent up to date
P.J. will keep the presentation pretty informal and is keen to have open discussions throughout the presentation so please think about any questions or ideas you may want to discuss with him.
Tony has also offered to talk to us about the Midlands & West Enterprise Program which takes place in the Galway Mayo Institute of Technology. GMIT is now recruiting for the next Midlands & West Enterprise Programme (MWEP) commencing in April 2010. It is a one-year programme providing entrepreneurs with business skills, networks, facilities and supports necessary to navigate the business start-up process. Tony is going to tell us more about this course and how it might be of benefit to WIN members who are thinking about working for themselves.
