Lessons learned

In this presentation, we have

collected some of the thoughts,

knowledge and lessons learned by

those attending the event and the

KIM team.

#Lesson1

"Intellectual property is a passive defense. It is

an asset that must be activated in different

ways, so as to generate return on investment in

their generation. "

"It is critical to think about the knowledge that

organizations have as a tradable asset."

"To accelerate the transfer processes is

necessary to think of collaboration with

specialized agents."

#Lesson2

"The target market is no longer our city, region

or country, the knowledge market is the world.

Therefore it is necessary that organizations

structure their culture around an international

focus.

"The economic map and knowledge of the world

has completely changed and we must be aware

of this and adapt. Asia, Latin America, and even

Africa, are real markets. "

Singapore.

#Lesson3

"There are always opportunities but

organizations have to work in their niche

market, being aware that technology and

knowledge are often controlled by large

companies.

Work, strategy and collaboration are key to

the competitiveness of organizations. They

have to move fast, use the knowledge of

others and, above all, start selling. "

#Lesson5

"To launch an innovative project you can opt

for two tracks, with related public and private

agents directly. In either case, it is important to

find specialized agents who can assist in the

process.

It is important to learn and understand the

system to support innovation and

entrepreneurship. "

#Lesson6

"If you seek funding for an

innovation project, you

must be open to finding

support outside of your

country",

Legaltis,

assistant company
