IMPAC3T-IP addresses critical challenges highlighted by the European Commission’s Action Plan on Intellectual Property.
In particular, the project targets:
The underutilisation of intellectual property (IP), emerging from the Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities and new opportunities stemming from digitisation.
The new modern drivers for licensing in enterprises.
Complex ownership and diverse goals of IP emerging from co-creation.
The need for global access to technologies, particularly healthcare innovations.
The project supports licensing in three key scenarios:

Classical Plus
Rethinks licensing by focusing on societal impact and accessibility, going beyond patents to include diverse intellectual assets.

Crisis
Ensures equitable access to technology for crises and provides flexible licensing solutions for urgent situations.

Co-creation
Streamlines IP created by complex partnerships with multiple owners and diverse licensing objectives.
