Governance can be a pretty broad topic – so this presentation is going to focus on what it takes to govern your corporation’s intellectual property, i.e. the business rules and the vocabulary used in the rules that guide your business practices.  Are you trying to wrap your organization around the need for governance?  Are you trying to figure out what it is and how it fits with your business rules?  This presentation will address such issues as what needs to be governed, how much needs to be governed, who needs to be involved, what a sample process could look like.

• What needs to be governed
• What is involved in the governance
