In this episode of Defence Deconstructed, David Perry sits down with Chris Pogue, the President Defence and Space at Calian Group. We discuss talk why IP matters so much for Canada in the context of the DIS, and what Canada should be doing to protect it. We look at why we should make more funding available for IP development, invest in the protection of IP and enable fair use for Canada where Canada funded the research.
