The webinar will feature speakers Matt Beenen, President and Founder of Mountech; Jeffrey Banyas, Manager-Legal Production at Sisson & Banyas, Attorneys at Law LLC; and Matt Patrick, Technical Director at DeatchWerks, as they provide the information attendees need to:   

  • Read and understand patents and patent applications as a research tool.
  • Identify potentially patentable ideas.
  • Know when and how to act when a patentable idea arises.
  • Understand when and how to act when they come across a competitor’s patent.
