In this same line of work, FEUGA took part in a session focused on “intellectual property as a driver of innovation”, organised in collaboration with the EIC ecosystem. The event addressed key aspects such as the identification of protectable results, the different protection routes, the strategic management of patents, trademarks and know‑how, and their role as a lever to access investment, licensing opportunities and new business avenues; FEUGA’s contribution was to share practical cases, tools and lessons learned from its experience supporting companies and research groups.
