Legal and Regulatory Compliance Advisory:

Offer insights on contractual matters to protect IWMI's interests in the commercialization of IP/IA.

Development of a Commercialization Strategy:

Explore various commercialization methods, including IP applications, licensing agreements, creative commons licensing, joint development, and spin-offs. Identify potential risks and challenges associated with the commercialization process and propose strategies to mitigate these risks.

Capacity Building Initiatives:

Facilitate two training sessions for IWMI staff focused on the commercialization of IP/IA while adhering to CGIAR requirements.

Reporting Obligations:

Provide separate reports on the tasks outlined above, culminating in a final report that summarizes the findings of the IP/IA assessment, along with recommendations for commercialization and an implementation plan.

Requirements:

EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS:

Essential:

Advanced degree in Law, complemented by qualifications or experience in Intellectual Property Law, commercialization, or licensing.

KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE:
