What do investors want to see in patents? What do patents tell a potential investor about a founder? And what do investors wish inventors knew before coming to them?
To answer these questions and more, we're joined this month by Dr. Sridhar Iyengar, an angel investor and accomplished serial entrepreneur in the medical devices and wearables space. Having been on both sides of the table, Dr. Iyengar's unique insights provide a comprehensive understanding of the essential role that patents can play in securing funding and in your company's long term success.
Sridhar and I are also joined today by:
⦿ Dr. Ashley Sloat, President and Director of Patent Strategy at Aurora
⦿ Dr. Sophia Li, Patent Strategy Fellow at Aurora
