Inventions, patents and industrial property rights

 

Particularly in the course of research projects, valuable knowledge and ideas are generated by THM employees. It is very important to the THM to protect this intellectual property ( intellectual property; IP ) against unauthorized access or unauthorized use by third parties.

The Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen has developed a policy for this purpose, which forms the basis for dealing with intellectual property.
