With the Rise of AI, What IP Disputes in Healthcare Are Likely to Emerge?
Munck Wilson Mandala Partner Greg Howison shared his perspective on some of the legal ramifications around AI, IP, connected devices and the data they generate, in response to emailed questions.
The ongoing series will address topics that matter to healthcare entrepreneurs – approaches and solutions that will help break through to their customers (whether they’re hospitals, insurance companies, patients or beyond). The eBook content is sourced from stories told every week on eMed, the home for healthcare entrepreneurship on the Kauffman Foundation’s website, Entrepreneurship.org.

- Insight on Early-Stage Fund-Raising: Early-stage entrepreneurs discuss the pitfalls, options and opportunities of fund-raising and partnering.
- Insights from Medical Device Entrepreneurs: Medical device entrepreneurs talk about how they met challenges and opportunities on everything from team building to clinical and regulatory success.
- Lessons for Fund-raising in Digital Health. Hear from entrepreneurs in the digital health sector about how they raised capital.
The series is available for free download here.
