Protecting your intellectual property is crucial. Many people, including students and startups, lose big opportunities because they do not protect their business or because they try to protect it too late. Join this brief workshop and learn how to avoid these mistakes. 

During the workshop conducted by Cristina Mayor, patent expert of the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property, you will learn what kind of IP rights there are and what is possible to protect as well as how patents can protect your current or future business. 

Digital transformation, APPs, computer-implemented inventions (CII), artificial intelligence, and software… are some of the central and current topics. Can they be protected and how? Let's discuss it with some examples and experiences.

The USI Transfer, USI Startup Centre and an expert from the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property will support you on-site and answer any questions regarding intellectual property protection.

The workshop is free of charge. To participate please sign up here.
