IP Matters: Trade Secrets, Data Governance & Privacy
A critical element of Intellectual Property strategy is how a venture maintains confidential information and trade secrets and governs data as a commercial asset. In addition to filing patents, startups need to consider maintaining the privacy and safeguarding proprietary information and data as part of their technology and business strategy.
Join us for an interactive panel discussion covering aspects of Technology Law as a means to protect your Intellectual Property. This session will be moderated by Craig Aitken, Lawyer and Founder of Aitken Legal Professional Corporation and U of T alumnus.
