Caerus Institute of Open Innovation is hosting a global summit on innovation, patents, and intellectual property. The event, “Intellectual Property Firestorm Meets Open Innovation 2.0”, will take place on March 4, 2009 at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.
The summit will bring together leaders from the intellectual property sector and the engineering industry to focus on methods of maximizing the value of mid- to large sized businesses. Experts will discuss topics such as open innovation in action, open innovation 2.0, and the implications for intellectual property quality and quantity goals for high tech companies. You will also have an opportunity to network at a social/mixer when the conference concludes.
Open Innovation refers to the new idea that businesses can be more profitable by sharing information. Today, businesses are beginning to incorporate outside research and inventions with their own internal research. This is different from the traditional “closed innovation” model where businesses generally kept research and development information secret until market release. For instance, one of the principles of open innovation is working with smart people both inside your company and outside your company.
