SUMMARY:#EoI -   IP for Open Science
DESCRIPTION:Join this Masterclass and learn why open science and intellectual property are not contradictory and how to manage them.\n\n\nThis session is about open science (OS) and intellectual property (IP). Many people might think that OS and IP are in conflict\, (isn´t IP secret?) but we´ll see that they have a lot in common. \nOS is a movement to provide transparency and access to research results to support innovation. Access to research results should be FAIR (Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable). However\, OS does not ignore commercial interests so OS is as “open as possible\, but as closed as necessary”. But we’ll see that as transparent open science is\, it doesn´t mean that you can ignore IP. \nIP is a legal system to reward innovators\, protect their creativity and to support innovation. We´ll see that IP information – today we´ll concentrate on patents – is also FAIR . And “as open as possible\, as closed as necessary” is actually built in to IP from the start. IP has been around for a very long time and you could consider IP as the original “open science”. \n  \nJoin us to deep dive into OS and IP principles and how to combine both systems. \n  \nAbout the speaker \nAfter a career in academia and R&D in the UK\, Nigel Clarke became a patent examiner at the European Patent Office in The Hague. He moved to Vienna and started work in the patent information division. Nowadays he acts as a consultant and a visiting fellow at Cambridge University. \nCheck Nigel Clarkes on LinkedIn. \n  \n  \nAbout the Engines of Innovation Series \nThe Engines of Innovation Series organized by the TU Wien Innovation Incubation Center (i²c) is a format that offers workshops to scientists who are seeking to broaden their horizons in the field of innovation and healthy high performance. These workshops are free of charge to scientists from all faculties and institutes of TU Wien. Registration required. \n_______________________________________________________________________________________ \nImportant: \n*During the event\, photographic and video material will be taken.
