Training series – Intellectual Property at the international level
Build your knowledge in intellectual property through a series of 5 trainings covering fundamentals, key sectors and major international markets.
Intellectual property is a key strategic lever for any business looking to expand internationally. This training series has been specifically designed to help SMEs understand, protect, and leverage their IP assets in the context of global market expansion.
Through a practical and strategic approach, you will build a solid foundation to identify your intangible assets, secure your innovations, and avoid common pitfalls associated with international growth.
The series also covers complex sector-specific realities and the particularities of major jurisdictions such as Europe, the United States, and Mercosur, enabling you to make informed decisions and align your IP strategy with your business objectives.
You can take one or several workshops based on your needs, but completing the full series will provide you with a comprehensive, practical, and actionable understanding of international intellectual property, tailored to the realities of SMEs.
This training is the recommended starting point to fully grasp key concepts and maximize the value of the entire program.
Why take this training on international intellectual property?
In a context of international expansion, intellectual property is no longer a secondary concern ‒ it becomes a strategic lever to protect your innovations, secure your operations, and support your growth.
Each market comes with its own rules, risks, and opportunities. Without a clear strategy, businesses expose themselves to costly mistakes, loss of competitive advantage, and even legal disputes.
This training will help you build a solid IP strategy tailored for international markets.
You will also gain a strong understanding of IP fundamentals and learn how to integrate them into your business strategy. You’ll discover how to effectively protect your assets, prioritize target markets, optimize your budget, and leverage international systems (PCT, Madrid, The Hague). A practical segment and complementary video content will further reinforce your learning.

- Understand the fundamentals of IP: patents, trademarks, copyright, industrial designs, and trade secrets
- Identify your IP assets and their strategic value
- Develop an IP strategy tailored to your international expansion
- Prioritize countries based on your export objectives
