Topics such as "Who is the owner of a new plant innovation?", "What is an EDV?", and "How far does the Scope of Protection Reach?" will be addressed in the second part of this program. The First Learner Webinar Series was created to provide a space for beginners, legal advisors, and R&D departments to understand and rethink their Intellectual Property Rights strategy of plant breeding.
So far, 32 participants have registered for individual days or the entire series. Nick Coumbe, Intellectual Property Coordinator at the New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research, is part of this group and highly recommends the First Learners Webinar Series to anyone involved with plant variety right protection applications and strategy. He said, "The delivery of the sessions allows for a great overview of the subject matter in a concise format."
