D6.7 IPR Management

This document is produced within the NATMed project. D6.7 IPR management is a plan that covers the theoretical framework and is used as a basis for the consortium, to proceed to an agreement on Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) during the project aligned with each partner’s organisation strategy. This allows the project’s consortium to be agile in further exploitation of its results. While specific IPR issues are mentioned in the Consortium Agreement (CA), from the proposal stage partners have agreed on basic rules. These are further described and analysed herein. Thus, this deliverable is delivered by M6 and shows the main bases of IPR knowledge and management as a strategy to be implemented during the lifetime of the NATMed project.

This document should be regarded only as a guide to help beneficiaries (the signatories of GA) with IPR management and protection activities. Only the rules for H2020, GA, and CA signed by the consortium are binding for the partners. This strategy will allow the consortium to produce D6.8 ‘’Project’s results and assets catalogue’’ where specific IPR issues will be defined and bound to the project’s outputs.
