Intellectual Property Intellectual property (IP) rights are an issue of great concern in many developing nations who see IP as a barrier to their access to valuable technology. A major constraint to technology transfer is the lack of trained professionals who have the experience to understand the proprietary issues in biotech transfer. The focus will be on capacity building through the use of experiential-learning activities and the development of best practices to be shared among the participants in the several ABSPII projects. ABSPII PCP’s will be used as models for the implementation of regulations in order to contribute to the development of trained staff in IP and Technology Transfer. IP management will be incorporated into the technology transfer process and training exercises will be focused on the actual products in development. This will encourage active participation by all parties involved and develop the expertise needed such that activities will continue beyond the life of the project. |
