SYNOPSIS :

Session 1 : Fusion Commercialization: Licensing and Business Development Considerations for Combined Medical Device and IT Assets by Dr Lori Pressman

The speaker will discuss the interplay between medical innovations and the data needed to attract investment, obtain regulatory approval, and while the innovation is being used. She also will talk about the business framework for valuing intellectual assets. She will disclose the contractual approaches in view of the uncertain outcomes, which boils down to “think of every way value could be generated and assure return of investments to the technology owner”. At the end of the session, the importance of innovation and technology transfer will be discussed.

Session 2: Kick Off Innovation to Commercialization by Prof Ir Dr Fatimah Ibrahim

The speaker will introduce the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) in the research and development stages. Next, fundamentals of research commercialization, and understanding of the various pathways to the marketplace will be shared by the speaker. The potential funding opportunities for pre-commercialization in Malaysia will be exposed in this talk. In the second hour, the participants will be given a hands-on practical session on solving and accelerating the participants’ prototype creation toward commercialization.
