IP & UK Space Activities - Protecting Patentable Inventions
Introduction
The UK Government has recently published a strategy document setting out ambitions for the UK in space.
The document brings together civil and defence policy for the first time and is a prelude to increasing the UK’s presence in the booming space market, with launch sites in Cornwall and Scotland soon to become operational.
Protection of innovation in this sector will be of critical importance to UK companies.
This session will look at the law surrounding protection of intellectual property rights in space activities with a particular focus on the considerations for protecting patentable inventions in space.
