Innovation and Intellectual Property Management (IIPM) Laboratory

We have successfully delivered training courses for both executive students and corporate clients for a number of years. The focus of these trainings courses tend to be within the context of and focus on innovation processes and systems with emphasis on IP strategies, approaches and tools for developing IP strategies, strategic decisions that concern IP and the way how organisations can strategize with IP.

We regularly deliver IP related content to participants of the TIM course through IfM Engage, our not-for profit in-house consultancy. On top of that we deliver content into executive master programmes run by other universities, such as the Technology Management and Digital Transformation programme run by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU).  

A standard offering of our Strategic IP Management course is available via IfM Engage, but please get in touch if you have specific training needs. We can design tailored training offerings.
