Simon Martin - Commercial Lawyer - HGM Legal/NZHIT Board Member Presents:
Data
Data is another IP. But there are lots of different types of data. Value in data doesn’t sit in one record but in a collection of records. That value is rapidly lost if the data is not current. Any transaction can contribute to multiple datasets. Those involved in a transaction should consider what datasets are created who owns them and how this might be impacted by IP, privacy, and confidentiality.
