Intellectual Property Rights Awareness Session
30 July 2026, 1500 Hrs to 1730 Hrs, Tuticorin
Confederation
of Indian Industry (CII) Tamil Nadu Technology Development & Promotion
Centre (TNTDPC) is
organizing an Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Awareness Program on 30
July 2026 at Tuticorin.
Intellectual
Property Rights (IPR) are the rights associated with intangible property owned
by a person or company and protected against use without consent. IPR plays an
important role in creating a competitive advantage for industries. The value of
intangible assets like inventions, designs, software, brand names, and other
creative and innovative ideas is higher than that of physical assets. It is
necessary to protect IPR to allow organizations to gain financial recognition
and benefits. IPR also helps in establishing an innovation ecosystem, incubate
knowledge-based start-ups, earn additional revenue and measure research
activity.
In this
background, CII-TNTDPC is organizing this program to raise awareness about the
significance of intellectual property rights in innovation and to embrace the
innovation and ecosystem driven by intellectual property rights among
stakeholders. The program provides the industry members with an opportunity to
understand about IPR, necessity of protecting IPR, how to monetize IPR in the
industry, and share their concerns and questions.
The
session will cover the following topics:
1. Introduction to Intellectual
Property Rights (IPR)
2. Types of IPR – Patent, Design,
Trademark & Copyrights
3. What can be protected under IPR
4. Filing Procedure of Patent,
Design, Trademark & Copyrights
5. Government schemes available for
IPR filing
