Benefits of IPR : More than
one reason
why you should go for IPTSE
Below are some key benefits of IPR
Every creation
requires time, energy and effort.
But no matter what the investment or time, Intellectual Property is vital for safeguarding your creation, however big or small. IPTSE seeks to generate awareness about Intellectual Property and benefits of IPR among students and young working professionals. Further, it also aims to promote a creative mindset amongst individuals. From those still studying to those who have begun their professional journeys, everyone can benefit from the exam as well as the course curriculum.
SCHOOL STUDENTS
As the focus on innovation, research and creation increases, it’s extremely important to foster a creative and innovative spirit among school students. Experts believe it’s crucial for students to know their way around Intellectual Property Rights. Apart from the many benefits of IPR, students can learn about the ways in which they can safeguard their creations, giving them a competitive edge over their peers.
UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
As people who will soon be joining the workforce, it’s important for university students to understand the nuances of IPR and its benefits.
As a law student, it’s important for you to understand and acquire an in-depth knowledge of Intellectual Property Rights. This will give you a solid grounding in legislative practices related to copyright, trademark, patents, designs, etc.
If you’re a design/fashion design, media or mass communication student, IPR awareness can help you protect your unique creations. Whether it’s an important story you developed and cracked or a campaign you worked on or a design you worked on with your heart and soul, the chances of the same getting copied are rather high. The real challenge lies in being able to distinguish between inspiration and plagiarism. Knowing what falls under the purview of someone’s rights, and what doesn’t, will help you traverse your field effectively and will help you secure your work.
While we witness a rapid growth of scientific, technological and medical innovation, it’s important for engineering students to understand IPR and its value in protecting your inventions. Working in the realm of industrial property, you will most likely be involved in the creation of proprietary designs or inventions.
Protecting and managing your research results are the most significant benefits of IPR for researchers. It’s also essential to know about the rights related to authorship in connection with research publications and the right way to protect R&D innovations. Timely filing of copyrights and patents is important to prevent disputes with other researchers. With the right expertise, you can safeguard your research and hard work.
