"Feature" Tech: Patent Technologies for Innovation of Systems and Components

Thursday March 6th at 5:00 PM – Live on Zoom 

Modern products are systems made up of mechanical, electronic, and software components, where the balance between these three parts shifts depending on new technologies. Designing a new product and driving innovation in these systems is a crucial topic for business growth. A deep understanding of how a product is made, how it is organized into subsystems, and which elements can be innovated depends on the structure of the product itself. The webinar explores the concept of a system of systems and provides insights into various innovation strategies and methods for thriving in competitive markets, not only by innovating the product as a whole but also by innovating its components.
