In this episode…

Are you wondering whether you should patent your company’s software? Should you equip yourself with the pros and cons so that you can make an informed decision?

Every company needs to ask themselves what their competitors are doing, what the largest players in the market are doing, and if they have a unique value proposition that is suitable for creating IP assets. More often than not, those answers will lead you to one conclusion: you need to obtain at least some small patent protection in connection with the rest of your IP, your software, your code, and more.

In this episode of Own Your Zone Podcast, JiNan Glasgow George, an IP Attorney and Founder of Neo IP, is joined by John Corcoran of Rise25 to discuss software patenting and its impact on your company. JiNan explains what software patenting means, the ways software patenting protects a company from litigation, and how cross-licensing can resolve a patent dispute.
