CIPP McGill

I had a great conversation with Michael Greenspan at @queensu about #university #IntellectualProperty, #TechnologyTransfer, and #InnovationPolicy. Listen to it here on Michael's podcast: podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/qufa/…

@RosieBarton Thank you for your service, David, in Parliament, as a Minister, as a @LawMcGill colleague, and as the co-founder of @cippmcgill . We will miss you at McGill but know that you will keep contributing to the legal community in other ways.

@IgnacioCofone @CambridgeUP @CUP_Law Congratulations @IgnacioCofone! This is a great contribution to our work at @cippmcgill on innovation, privacy, IP and more!

Beyond thrilled to share that my first book, "The Privacy Fallacy: Harm and Power in the Information Economy" is now in production with @CambridgeUP. In a world where data is the lifeblood of the economy, figuring out how to protect people from data harms is paramount 1/

Product hopping common #Pharma strategy to up $$$: "Companies ride out their monopoly on a medication and then, shortly before the arrival of generic competition, they switch — or “hop” — patients over to a more recently patented version of the drug to prolong the monopoly."

Happy to be quoted in this article on negotiations over the WHO pandemic treaty. Bottom line: it is too little and fails to be proactive in developing new drugs through #OpenScience: managingip.com/article/2by6m9…

Despite the heat outside, we will be cooking up a storm re #OpenScience indoors at @thesgconline, talking about drug discovery through the TRIDENT preclinical platform and @VIMIOpen's drug discovery ecosystem!

Priority areas include private law (especially common law), commercial law, Indigenous legal traditions, and taxation. I presume this includes #IP law which would contribute greatly to the Faculty!

Looking forward to speaking tomorrow (China) at @WIPO summer school at ZUEL on Too Much IP & strategies to avoid it. Will look at example of South African mRNA hub where #IP seriously delayed development of a vaccine & compare to #OpenScience approach. #plus_WSSCN2023_ZUEL" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">welc.wipo.int/acc/index.jsf?…

🔬🚀 #OpenScience #partnerships can revitalize university-industry collaboration & drive innovation. 40 years of failure to achieve real economic benefit from publicly funded research is enough. Time to try different approach: cigionline.org/articles/shoul… #InnovationRevolution

Collaboration, transparency, and accessibility pave the way for innovation to flourish. Let's embrace the power of open science to drive both scientific advancement and economic growth! #OpenScience #Innovation #Commercialization#

#OpenScience isn't just about sharing knowledge; it's also a gateway to diverse commercialization opportunities. By embracing openness, researchers and innovators unlock multiple channels for turning their discoveries into real-world applications. 1/2

Catch our Director @IP_policy on June 29th at the WIPO Summer School hosted by Zhongnan University of Economics and Law in Wuhan, China. Get ready to delve into the limits of intellectual property & the case for #OpenScience. #WIPOSummerSchool #IntellectualProperty
