Management School welcomes IPSim

Published on

The IPSim Challenge took place at the Management School today, using the School's brand new Entrepreneurship Hub.

With plans to introduce more innovation into several ULMS modules at both undergraduate and postgraduate level Director of Studies, Dale Heywood, met with a small start up organistion, IPSim, which demonstrated its IP Simulation game at the HEEG Conference in summer 2016.  She invited Wesley Randal of IPSim to hold a workshop at the Management School to enable students to participate in the game over an afternoon.

The simulation game winners, MSc Entrepreneurship students Tingting Ma and Laurence Morrishaw, received tablets and £600 worth of IP Legal advice kindly donated by sponsors Cathy Tero and Vikram Kumar Singla from Oracle.com and Nicholas Thompson from WP Thompson Solicitors respectively.

The IPSim software has now been installed on eight PC's in the Enterprise Hub and is available for staff and students to use over the coming year.
