CIIR joins the Pan-European Seal (PES) Professional Traineeship Programme

In December 2023, the European Patent Office, the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), and the Centre for Information and Innovation Law (CIIR), Faculty of Law, Unversity of Copenhagen signed a Memorandum of Understanding on the cooperation in the fields of IP awareness and education under the framework of the Pan-European Seal.

 

The cooperation aims at enabling a close and solid relationship between the EUIPO, the EPO and the academic world, and will give students at the Faculty of Law access to a variety of learning resources.

 

The Pan-European Seal (PES) Professional Traineeship Programme is a comprehensive traineeship programme that bridges academia and the labour market in different fields (IP, law, finance, business, engineering, etc.) to promote and disseminate intellectual property among the academic community.

 

First established in 2014, the network comprises more than 100 PES university members from all over Europe, and since the inception of the programme, more than 1 000 trainees have been welcomed to both the EUIPO and the EPO.
