Based on the set of seven technology transfer case studies, the seminar series aims to illustrate how patents facilitate technology transfer from R&D-conducting organisations and promote market success. Covering a range of economic sectors, countries, and types of technology transfer, each case study provides key takeaways for stakeholders in universities, public research organisations and businesses.

Description
By providing an overview on the different cases studies and discussing the importance of technology transfer as a means to valorise IP, specifically in the context of research cooperation, this kick-off event will set the scene for the subsequent training sessions dealing with each of the case studies individually and in more detail. The introduction to the topic will be rounded off by an update on the unitary patent system and its implications for SMEs and universities. Participants will have the opportunity to exchange with the speakers in a “Meet the Speakers” session following the official programme.
