Moon Kim Seminar (with IP Attorney Ron D'Alessandro)

I hosted my first independent seminar last month on May 21st:



The seminar featured Dr. Moon Kim of Harbor Pacific Capital and Ron D'Alessandro, a New York based patent attorney.

It was designed to help Korean startups learn more about the nitty gritty details of an overseas investment and give the later stage tech-centric companies some advice about the importance of holding a high quality patent portfolio.





All in all, the seminar was a huge success: we had about 30 people in attendance, representing over a dozen companies.

I would like to give a special thanks to Hyung-ah Kim and Jong-woo Kim of the Seoul Business Agency for letting my hold this seminar at the DMC Center.
