I was wondering about this. What happens when someone invents a patent related to their work? It is strange to me if the IP belongs to the company but not the patent.
- rhino369 5y agoDepends what the person's employment contract says. 95% of the time, the inventor is required to assign all rights to inventions related to the companies' work to the company. So you have inventor: Steve Wozniak; assignee: Apple Inc. Assignment allows the owner to be different from the inventor.
