NCP-IP Event Tipp: 4IP Council Webinar Innovating in IoT and Standards:

How SMEs Can Navigate Standards Development, Patent Licensing, Disputes and IP Strategy

4iP Council is pleased to invite you to our upcoming webinar, “Innovating in IoT and Standards: How SMEs Can Navigate Standards Development, Patent Licensing, Disputes and IP Strategy.”

Matteo Sabattini (Sisvel), Jamie Lewis (UK IPO), and Justine Ferland (WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center) will explore how SMEs working with Internet of Things (IoT) technologies can engage with standards, navigate patent licensing, manage disputes, and develop effective IP strategies.

The session will highlight practical initiatives and tools designed to support SMEs, including licensing support programmes, advisory services, dispute resolution mechanisms, and funding opportunities. These efforts aim to make the IP and standards landscape more accessible and manageable for smaller innovators.

The presentations will be followed by a live Q&A session, giving participants the opportunity to engage directly with the speakers.
