About the webinar

Protecting IP from quantum-focused R&D

Quantum technologies are opening new avenues for innovation across quantum computing, hardware, photonics, algorithms and control systems. As research and commercial development accelerate, an effective IP strategy is increasingly important for technology companies, research institutions and start-ups.

This session explores quantum-related patent applications, prosecution challenges, and practical recommendations for protecting and commercialising IP from quantum-focused R&D, with global lessons and a practical roadmap for India.
