UC Davis Big Bang! Workshop Series: Starting Something That Matters

Join Joe DiNunzio, executive director of the UC Davis Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, for an introduction to the most important skill any innovator or entrepreneur needs: the ability to build a network around their ideas. Later in the workshop, Vicky Lee, a partner with DLA Piper's technology and sourcing group, will address the concept and concerns surrounding intellectual property (IP), often a new venture’s first tangible asset.
