Short description
New IP support programme dedicated to start-ups launched by the French Patent and Trademark Office. The Start-up programme is adapted to the start-ups’ needs and business rhythms.
Technical requirements
With the INPI Start-up programme, the start-up is accompanied by the same expert:
- a first contact allows a state of play and IP recommendations;
- 3 or 4 following meetings may be conducted to draw IP actions plans if needed;
- an overview is drawn with an evaluation of IP practices. The evaluation of the start-up’s practices in IP is conducted thanks to a tool we have developed and called “Empreinte PI” or “IP Footprint” in English;
- at this final stage, an Innovation Support Letter may also be given in order to help the start-up in getting financial backup.
