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 (IP) is a key strategic lever for any company seeking to expand internationally. This training series has been specifically designed to support SMEs in understanding, protecting and leveraging their IP assets in the context of global expansion.
Through a strategic and practical approach, you will build a solid foundation to secure your innovations and structure your strategy in complex technological and industrial environments.
The series also addresses sector-specific realities as well as 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 may take one or more sessions depending on your needs.
This training allows you to go further by applying IP concepts to concrete sector-specific contexts.
Why take this training on innovation protection?
In highly competitive sectors such as aerospace, defence, artificial intelligence and industrial technologies, intellectual property goes far beyond protection—it becomes a strategic lever to secure your assets, structure partnerships and support your international growth.
Complex environments multiply risks: international collaborations, technology transfers, contracts and foreign suppliers. Without a structured approach, companies may weaken their competitive advantage.
This training will help you adopt a proactive approach to protecting and leveraging your innovations in a globalized context.
Through real-life situations (OEMs, licensing, partnerships, cross-border NDAs), you will learn how to anticipate risks and make informed decisions.

- Structure your agreements (transfer clauses, licensing, OEMs, technology partnerships)
- Manage relationships with foreign suppliers and manufacturers
- Frame international distribution agreements
- Anticipate risks related to confidentiality agreements (NDAs) in a cross-border context
- Align your contracts with your overall IP strategy
By the end of this training, you will be able to:
