Managing IP with Limited Resources: Smart Tactics for In-House Legal Teams

Location: Zoom

In today’s business environment, legal teams are increasingly expected to deliver strategic value while operating under tight resource constraints. For in-house legal teams,  whether in startups, growing enterprises, or multi-national companies,  managing IP can be particularly challenging. Limited budgets, minimal headcount and growing demands from internal stakeholders often mean that IP management tasks such as multi-jurisdictional filings, enforcement, portfolio strategy, global brand monitoring and risk mitigation can be overwhelming, or are sometimes handled reactively.

We invite you to join us for webinar where our DLA Piper IP team will take a deep dive into the importance of strategic IP management and the potential difficulties faced by in-house legal teams, with practical solutions to help you stay ahead.

This webinar will provide you with practical and cost-effective strategies to optimize your IP operations:

• Identify and prioritize high-impact IP activities: Evaluate IP activities based on potential value, risk, product lifecycle and market relevance
• Implement cost-effective filing and portfolio management strategies: Understand how to maximize and tailor protection through strategic filing
• Manage the risks of launching new product/brand name on a budget: Conduct red flag clearance searches and mitigate risk through branding choices
• Leverage technology and automation in online IP enforcement: Use online monitoring tools and implement takedown protocols
• Streamline IP processes and workflows within the organization: Create internal IP playbooks and SOPs for consistency
