CyNam & Wynne-Jones IP roundtable: Who's IP is it anyway?
Winning a contract with government or a major enterprise can be a defining moment for a startup. But buried in the terms is a question that can quietly reshape your company's future: when the work is done, who owns what you built?
Over lunch, this roundtable looks at the IP realities of selling into large organisations and the public sector, where standard contracts often assume the buyer takes ownership, or sweeping licence rights, over everything created. Where does your existing know-how end and their commissioned work begin? And what happens to the value you have spent years building if you sign it away without realising?
With practical guidance from Wynne-Jones IP and CyNam, this session helps founders and business leaders walk into those negotiations better informed on what to protect before you bid, what to push back on, and how to keep ownership of critical assets.
