Ms. Jennifer Che, our President and Managing Director, spoke at the Hong Kong Intellectual Property Department’s IP Training Programme on patent commercialization and technology transfer. Since 2020, the IPD has partnered with the Vocational Training Council’s Institute of Professional Education and Knowledge to arrange various IP training programmes. Other speakers include Mr. Michael Lin – a strategic business consultant & President of IIPCC, Dr. David Ai from the London School of Economics and Political Science, and Dr. Vincent Zhong, an expert in IP licensing and technology transfer who worked at Netac Technology Co., Ltd.

Jennifer’s talk, titled ‘Building a Strategic Patent Portfolio for Commercialization,’ taught professionals how to strategically build patent portfolios with a business mindset. Aside from building IP, Jennifer also focused on topics such as IP licensing, ownership transfers, enforcement, and cross-border issues.

Attendees, including IP owners and executives from startups, SMEs, and large enterprises in the innovation sector, found her talk incredibly insightful and beneficial.

We are very thankful to the IPD and PEAK/VTC for this opportunity to help build a deeper understanding of IP and commercialization in Hong Kong.
