Event Focus
According to the World Research Group, intangible assets
comprise 70% or more of corporate asset value today. Nowhere is
this truer than in the case of high-end device and certainly
biotech companies. But many often fail to properly manage their IP
and miss tremendous opportunities to capture revenues and
recognize the value of their intangibles. Furthermore, many
executives think that monetizing IP is a no-brainer and fail to
take the necessary steps to derive most value out of it.
This forum seeks to address the above issues and provide some
guidance to device and biotech firms about the best
strategies to maximize IP valuation, particularly in the current
uncertain economic environment.

Personalized Medicine
Are We There Yet?
Personalized medicine
is the practice of treatment to patients and their diseased cells based on genetic/genomic knowledge and health information technology.
It is a therapeutic
modality fueled by the genetic data and diagnostic tools that
emerged following the decoding of the human genome about ten years
ago. Personalized medicine represents a paradigm shift in health
care requiring a whole new approach to science, but progress in
making it a reality has been slow. Although many biotech firms and
institutional researchers are rallying around personalized
medicine, the timeline to new therapies is still being
recalibrated.
