Date : 15th October 2011 (Saturday)
Time : 9.00 a.m. – 12.00 noon
Venue : C&S Lecture Room, 2nd Floor, Wisma IEM, PJ
Presenter : Liew Chee Keat / Puvaneswarri Nanjappan

To say that the process of R&D involves a lot of research is an understatement. It is, after all, at least one half of the process. But how often do you find yourselves facing irrelevant data in the course of your research? How do you ensure that you get useful information, each and every time? How do you sniff out the cash from the trash? In this workshop, we will guide and train you on the fundamentals of conducting patent searches. Participants will be introduced to free patent search engines and learn how to choose correct keywords and how to search using the International Patent Classification (IPC). The session will be an interactive one, so participants are strongly encouraged to experiment with the search engines and ask questions to facilitate their learning about patent searches
