IP Prime event – June 3
IP PRIME Canada’s IP Education Summit
In person and virtual event
Join the Canadian Intellectual Property Office for Canada’s flagship event in intellectual property (IP) education.
Made for the entrepreneur, this event is where business practice and IP expertise meet to highlight the IP decisions that matter to Protect, Research, Innovate, Market, and Expand (IP PRIME).
IP PRIME is the only national event in Canada that unites the full innovation ecosystem: government programs, sector experts, investors, and IP strategists, to give SMEs a clear, actionable roadmap for protecting, commercializing, and scaling their ideas.
Who should attend?
The ideal attendee is an innovation-driven SME that wants to turn its ideas into defensible, valuable, scalable assets and avoid losing control of what it’s building.
IP PRIME is designed for founders, CEOs, CTOs, and product leaders who are:
- Unsure what to protect or how
- Preparing for investment or due diligence
- Working with researchers, contractors, or co-founders
- Entering regulated or competitive markets
- Scaling into the U.S., EU, or global markets
- Building IP-rich products or technologies
- Looking to license IP or access public-sector technologies
- Wanting to avoid IP mistakes that cost time, money, and ownership
- Innovating for Agri-Food, CleanTech, Natural Resources, or Defence applications
Most events teach you what IP is.
IP PRIME shows you how to use IP to win.
What to expect
The IP PRIME conference offers:
- A 360° understanding of how IP drives business success
- Masterclasses that turn IP from a legal concept into a business tool
- Sector-specific insights from leaders in Agri-Food, CleanTech, Natural Resources, and Defense
- Direct access to federal partners who help you build and protect IP
