This resource explains the basics and novelties of intellectual property (this document is in French).

Intellectual property is critical to every business and is the most important asset of many businesses. It remains challenging, however, to deal safely and successfully with all of the IP that may be implicated in business transactions — from sales of a few assets, through tax-driven reorganizations, to sales of entire businesses. Patents may not move; IP licenses (such as software licenses) may not survive a reorganization; trademark rights may be tarnished or lost; IP enforcement rights can be impaired.

The recession is causing every industry to rethink its strategy on generating income and revenue. The nonprofit sector is no exception. In fact, some would argue that the philanthropic dollar has never been more competitive.

Companies with server networks to bring "infrastructure on demand" to their customers provide cloud computing. In busy times, customers can dramatically ramp up their computer usage without investing in equipment and software, and then quickly ramp down when the extra capacity is no longer needed. This session will address challenges faced by companies that use or provide cloud computing services.
