Event Synopsis:

Innovation is the lifeblood of business in the information age.  Most of this innovation is captured in trade secrets. Product cycles have compressed making speed to market critical for a competitive advantage.  Patents and other forms of intellectual property protection may be too slow.  Increased employee mobility as well as threats to computer stored information have created the confluence of increased trade secret value and vulnerability.

In order to protect the company “jewels” management is challenged to improve their business processes in regard to their trade secret assets.  Information does not qualify as a trade secret if it is not the subject of “reasonable efforts” to protect its secrecy.  Requirements for what is “reasonable” in light of current threats appears to be ever increasing.

Join a panel of key thought leaders and practitioners assembled by The Knowledge Group as they take listeners beyond the basics of trade secrets law and protection. Speakers, will examine existing trends, best practices and strategies that will help businesses ensure trade secret protection in the face of internal and external threats.
