Noel Courage quoted in the article “Intellectual Property Institute of Canada recommends feds fund IP registration to drive innovation” by Canadian Lawyer.
“It’s easy to say, ‘file more patents,’ but it’s not easy to file more patents that are actually going to make money,” says Courage. “And there are broad correlations between filing patents and innovation and economic improvement. But you still want to be deploying your money, your taxpayer-dollars, in a smart way, if you’re going to be paying for patents because there are a lot of patents that don’t end up going anywhere. You just have to be careful with your due diligence.”
