The Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Unit (TTIPU), a unit of the Research Management Office, held a webinar entitled "Copyright and Patent for HEI Educators" last October 30, 2024. Ms. Anna May Ramos, the Director of Adamson University’s Innovation and Technology Support Office (ITSO) and the invited resource person generously shared her expertise to the more than 80 attendees, many of whom were faculty and staff of PNU.

Aside from increasing its production of empirical research outputs, PNU also aims to venture into research and development (R&D) activities with potential for patent and commercialization. The University also plans to create a reward system for faculty members who wish to protect their intellectual assets through copyright and patent. It is because of these plans RMO is introducing IP to the community, an initial step towards the attainment of these goals.

Thank you all for attending the webinar!

We would like to invite you to our webinar on "Copyright and Patent for Higher Education Institution Educators." on October 30, 2024 from 3:00 to 5:00 PM via Zoom.

As part of TTIPU’s Six-Month Priority Plan, a series of Intellectual Property awareness campaigns intended to run across the PNU system started on September 11, 2024. The first in a three series awareness campaign, Introducing Intellectual Property in a University Context seminar was given to the members of the PNU Administrative Council. Two invited resource persons- Ms Anna May Ramos and Engineer Edgar Balmaceda of Adamson University’s Innovation and Technology Support Office conducted the seminar. Ms Ramos and Engineer Balmaceda discussed basic concepts of intellectual property and its forms including copyright, trademarks, patents, and industrial design. The next sessions planned for October hope to discuss intellectual property based on the context of PNU educators and of Graduate School students aspiring to develop R&D outputs.

Happening now: Hybrid Seminar of Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Unit entitled "Introducing Intellectual Property in a University Context" at AV Theater E.P. Dagot Hall - Philippine Normal University.
