From Protection to Commercialization: IP and Licensing for Software and AI

As software and AI continue to transform industries, understanding how to protect and commercialize your innovation is more important than ever. In this extended session, JHTV's IP and licensing experts explore the full path from protection to commercialization of AI and software innovations: patents, copyrights, trade secrets, and open-source considerations, followed by how software and AI technologies get licensed and brought to market. Whether you are a researcher exploring translational pathways or a founder building a technology venture, this panel offers a practical, ground-level look at building an IP and commercialization strategy that strengthens your competitive position and prepares your work for growth and investment.
