IP4INNO videos

eUconnect has just produced three short films about the IP4Inno project which was funded under the PRO INNO Europe® initiative during 2006-2008. IP4Inno had 19 IP focused partners from across the EU and it trained 800 intermediaries who work with SME, on the importance of IP Management to commercial success, and these trainees then passed on their training and the validated toolkit to 500 SMEs.

These films summarise:

• Why Intellectual Property Rights matter strategically for SMEs in the EU?
• How the IP4Inno project developed a range of practical tools that helped to manage patent portfolios, with illustrations from a case study?
• What has been the result and impact of the project, including the next steps which will help to push out the tools to a wider SME audience?

We hope you enjoy the films and find them useful to your work in the support of SMEs and the protection of innovation.
