Strategic IP for Start-Ups: From Concept to Market
Protect, leverage, and scale your innovations. Join us at the AsiaBerlin Summit 2025 Satellite Event at the Berliner Hochschule für Technik at Haus Gauß B501 (Senatsaal) for a practical and business-focused introduction to Intellectual Property (IP) law designed for start-ups and innovators. This session will provide a clear understanding of patents, trademarks, designs, and copyright—and show how to use IP as a strategic asset to secure investment, strengthen market positioning, and support expansion across borders.
The session will be led by Veronica Hall-Velez, an international lawyer specialising in IP law, who supports start-ups in translating legal mechanisms into actionable strategies that enable business growth and internationalisation.
The session will cover:
● Requirements and procedures for fi ling patents, utility models, trademarks, and design applications at the German Patent and Trade Mark Office and within the European system (EPO, EUIPO)
● Cost-efficient strategies for protecting innovations from the outset
● A comparative look at German, European, and selected Asian IP systems, relevant for start-ups developing solutions in Asia and seeking to establish or expand operations in Germany.
