Register now to be part of the coolest event series of the technology transfer and IP business community in 2025!
The Term Sheet Hackathon* is a unique collaborative action to engage the global IP community, while creating a useful and concrete outcome with the LESI Annual Conference in Singapore as the main event. An outline of the Term Sheet Hackathon program is shown below and described in more detail below — Stage 1 is now open for registration! It will be repeated to cover different time zones! You can participate in Stage 1 even if you cannot make it to the annual conference (but we hope to see you there, too!)
- Why hackathon? The hackathon format allows for co-creation and real-time interaction between the participants. It is a bottom-up approach that enables a rapid and decentralised development of novel concepts, and it has proven to be useful in many different contexts ranging from startup development to coding — and now we are bringing it into the world of tech transfer, IP, and law!
- Why Term Sheet? A well-drafted term sheet is a crucially important element of successful technology transfer processes and negotiations. It is also a sufficiently short and concise document that is known to all stakeholders of IP deals, which is why it is expected to serve well as the focus and outcome of the program.
Stage 1: CO-CREATING THE CASES
For participants in Asia-Pacific: March 11 at 4pm SGT/SST / 9am CET
For participants in Americas, Europe, Africa: March 17 at 5pm CET / 12pm EDT (click here for event webpage)
- Aim: to create one or more a case scenarios involving AI and data for the hackathon — utilising Gen-AI tools!
- Format: An online workshop open for LESI members and non-members
- The number and types of cases will depend on the fields and interests of the participants.
- Because the case descriptions will be created collaboratively in an online workshop prior to the event, they will meet the needs of the various stakeholders directly and be broadly applicable across various fields.
- Please indicate your industry or field of interest in the registration form. The participants will be divided into teams during the workshop accordingly.
- Selected case descriptions will be included in the in-person Term Sheet Hackathon at the Annual Conference in Singapore in April 2025.

*Note: The term “hackathon” is in this context used to describe a collaborative, time limited co-creation session aiming at generating a concrete outcome according to the task description provided. No coding/programming will be done.

SMART CITIES, SMARTER IP : IP and Licensing Strategies for Sustainable Smart Cities.
As cities around the world adopt technologies to make them more connected and “smarter,” they need to enable more collaboration within and across industries. Effectively leveraging intellectual property assets enables this collaboration and creates opportunities to make smart city development… smarter!
LESI2025 — LESI’s Annual Conference — will bring together key players in the technology licensing industry and businesses which are leading this digital transformation. The meeting will be held in Singapore, a country that has consistently been ranked one of the smartest cities in the world. The country’s success can be attributed to its ability to effectively leverage technology to improve the quality of life for its citizens, while also prioritizing efficient governance and sustainability. It would be difficult to find a more fitting place to host a global conversation on strategies to use and protect intangible assets and intellectual property in the ever-evolving smart city space.
Join us for this exciting annual event to meet and hear from experts and businesses around the globe about how they are contributing to the smart city ecosystem and their thoughts on the road ahead.
SUPER EARLY BIRD RATE AVAILABLE UNTIL 30 NOVEMBER!
