Workshop 5.1: European Codes of Practice for Knowledge Valorisation in which we will discuss their relevance for SME Software Companies
In this 45-minute Workshop hosted by the Austrian NCP-IP, the National Contact Point for Intellectual Assets and Knowledge Valorisation, you will learn more about the European Commission’s Codes of Practice for Knowledge Valorisation. The term Knowledge Valorisation is becoming increasingly central and describes the process of creating social and economic value from knowledge by connecting various fields and sectors and transforming data, expertise, and research results into sustainable products, services, solutions, and knowledge-based policies. To support the implementation of Guiding Principles for Knowledge Valorisation, the European Commission has developed four Codes of Practice which aim to facilitate the implementation of knowledge valorisation principles at national, regional, and local levels.
The workshop will facilitate a discussion between NCP-IP, the European Commission's Unit for Valorisation Policies and IPR and the ÖPA, the Austrian Patent Office.
Workshop highlights
Presentations by the European Commission and discussion with NCP-IP and ÖPA of the 4 Codes of Practice:
1. Code of Practice on the Management of Intellectual Assets: Provides guidelines for effective management of intellectual assets to maximize socio-economic benefits
2. Code of Practice on Standardisation: Highlights the importance of standardisation as a channel for exploiting knowledge and encourages researchers to engage in standardisation processes
3. Code of Practice on Industry-Academia Co-Creation: Promotes collaboration between industry and academia to develop innovative solutions jointly
4. Code of Practice on Citizen Engagement: Focuses on involving citizens and civil society in the development and implementation of innovative solutions
Target group:
This workshop is aimed at actors interested in knowledge valorisation and the translation of results and research, as well as innovation managers and anyone interested.
