| The imposition of US tariffs is going to reshape the landscape for Canadian organizations. The looming trade tensions are going to require organizations to rethink various aspects of their business, including their approach to innovation and intellectual property. In particular, organizations will need to understand implications for their IP in the context of working with companies in the United States, including how to leverage their IP for competitive advantage.
In this 60-minute session, the discussion will explore:
- Implications of the tariffs on innovation
- Strategies on leveraging IP rights to mitigate tariff effects and maintain competitive advantage
- Cross-licensing and legal considerations for organizations operating across the US-Canada border
