IPR Cell
Nurturing Innovation, Protecting Ideas: Empowering COER University's Intellectual Property for a Brighter Future.
COER University's IPR Cell promotes awareness and understanding of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) among students and faculty. It serves as a bridge between the university's creative minds and the legal and commercial aspects of intellectual property.
The IPR Cell supports faculty and students in filing IPR applications and navigating the process. It educates students, faculty, and researchers about various types of intellectual property, such as patents, copyrights, and trademarks, highlighting their significance and the legal framework surrounding them.
Additionally, the cell facilitates the commercialization of university-developed intellectual property by connecting researchers with potential licensees or industry partners.
