Bringing cleantech innovation to market event on 26 April 2024
As the effects of climate change grow more palpable each year, the urgency to take action has never been greater. While the European Union (EU) with its Green Deal aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, this target depends on the early adoption of innovations in clean technologies. To gain insights on commercialising these technologies, we are excited to invite you to the online event "Bringing cleantech innovation to market" hosted by the Observatory on Patents and Technology at the EPO.
In collaboration with the European Investment Bank (EIB), we have conducted a new economic study shedding light on the challenges faced by companies aiming to bring clean technologies to the forefront. Using EPO patent data and a new survey of clean-tech businesses in Europe and the US, we will explore commercialisation challenges as well as investment and IP strategies.
Join us and hear first hand from innovative companies about their journey in revolutionising cleantech.
Mark your calendars and be a part of the conversation shaping the future of clean innovation in Europe.
Date: 26 April 2024
