IP diagnostic tool
The IP Diagnostic tool will help you analyse your level of preparedness and knowledge in IP and identify the relevant aspects on which you may need further information.
This test consists of a questionnaire divided into three categories:
- IP Protection – to identify which are the most relevant IP rights to you
- IP Internationalisation and Commercialisation – to assess your knowledge on how IP rights can be exploited for your business
- IP Practice – to test your general awareness in IP
Once you have completed the questionnaire you will get a personalised report helping you identify the areas in which you should be careful in drafting or adapting your IP strategy when internationalising to a new region.
