European IP Helpdesk
2023-2026
- Description
The European Intellectual Property (IP) Helpdesk is a first-line IP support service of the European Commission. It provides free assistance to European SMEs and start-ups, universities, and public research organisations (including their technology transfer offices), and beneficiaries of EU-funded Research and Innovation projects to help them manage their IP, successfully drive knowledge valorisation processes, and thus bolster the European innovation ecosystem.
Seeking to support IP capacity building across the full spectrum of IP practices, from awareness to strategic use and successful exploitation, the service offers a varied portfolio of publications and guiding materials, an extensive online training calendar, and a Helpline service for direct IP support.
