Digital Innovations SIG: World Lunch #7

A few years ago, the Max Planck Society introduced a partially standardised licensing model for spin-offs. The model includes a 10% stake of Max Planck in the companies and, in some cases, milestone payments or royalties. The model has proved to be successful in most cases. Only in the start-up projects, which are solely based on software code the model was sometimes considered unfair by the founders. The Max Planck Society has since then revised the model for these special technologies again...

Digital Innovations World Lunch #3

Speaker, Koen Verhoef, will be discussing conceptual and procedural aspects of providing such data access and will share details on the commercial terms of a number contracts that we have negotiated with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning companies. As this is a relatively new aspect that KTOs are dealing with, we aim to make this an interactive session and hope that participants are willing to share their own experiences on this topic.
