SUMMARY:Q Founder Seminar: Building a Robust Patent Portfolio
UID:639887@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:A strong patent portfolio is a strategic asset\, not just a collection of filings.  This seminar explores how to align portfolio-building decisions with commercial goals\, manage IP assets over time\, and think proactively about coverage\, scope\, and risk.  The session will also touch on when and why in-licensing third-party IP can strengthen a broader portfolio and support long-term value creation.  ​About the Speaker: Dr. Keith Chadwick is currently an independent patent agent registered to practice before the US Patent and Trademark Office and scientific consultant. He has extensive experience working in the field of intellectual property\, with a focus on serving clients in the life sciences. Much of his career has been spent in top international law firms\, including Wilson Sonsini\, Goodwin Procter and Gemini Law\, where his practice included patent drafting\, global patent prosecution\, and IP due diligence for complex transactions. He also leverages his scientific expertise to advise on technical aspects of IP litigation. Prior to pursuing a career in IP\, Dr. Chadwick was professor of Industrial and Physical Pharmacy at Purdue University\, where his research focused on drug delivery and pharmaceutical manufacturing\, while also providing expert consulting services to industrial clients. \n\nWebcast Link: https://northwestern.zoom.us/j/95393251847\n\nRegister: https://luma.com/csu6qvp1
