IPAN | Intellectual Property Awareness Network

The Intellectual Property Awareness Network

The Intellectual Property Awareness Network brings together organisations and individuals from all walks of business, commerce, education and the IP professions to champion the importance and understanding of IP as a vital ingredient for innovation and success in entrepreneurial business. Through our events, publications such as our Topic Briefs, and research projects, we seek to engage and enthuse, stimulating debate about the role and value of IP in all its forms. IPAN is an independent not for profit, inclusive, membership organisation for people who are users of IP in their businesses, organisations for IP rich industry sectors, educationalists teaching IP awareness, IP experts and anyone who has an interest or something to contribute or who would just like to know more and make IP connections.
