This webinar is organised by the European IP Helpdesk in collaboration with the IP4OS project.
IP4OS aims to strengthen the connection between Intellectual Property (IP) and Open Science (OS) within the European research and innovation landscape. The project supports research organisations in making their results more valuable and reusable, promotes the FAIR data principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable), and helps align IP management practices with open-science strategies.
This collaboration with the European IP Helpdesk enables us to highlight these issues in the context of collaborative research, where both IP protection and openness strategies play a crucial role
