Points for discussion:

• How are know-how and other valuable but non protectable results managed internally (know-how disclosure procedures?)
  • How can originators be identified?
  • How are internal disclosures managed?
  • Unlike patent disclosures (Invention Disclosure Form - IDF), know-how disclosures will/might be made at the time of exploitation (risk of litigation between originators)?
  • Different type of intellectual property: know-how (e.g. non-patentable methods), biological materials (antibodies, cell lines, models), semiconductor topographies, etc.

• How are the creators rewarded? Difference from the patent, software practice (“1/3 rule”)?

• Licensing practice? Difference from patent, software?
  • Special provisions required?
  • Difference in the amount of royalties?
