Important results from the project

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The goal was to carry out a pilot of training initiatives in intellectual property law, standardization and accreditation during the period September 2018 - March 2019, which then paves the way for about 10 training initiatives per year during the period 2020-2021. The target group was actors in innovation and export and above all in the group for small and medium-sized companies and startup companies. We are very proud to have been able to reach as many as we did with our digital seminar (training initiatives).

Expected long term effects

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The result was a solid basis for these training initiatives, as well as strengthened collaboration between standardization, accreditation, assessment of conformity, intellectual property and innovations. In extension is the expected effect significantly higher level of knowledge in the areas of standards, intellectual property, and accreditation, especially among Sweden´s current and future innovation actors.

Approach and implementation

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** At the beginning of the project, we worked out a fairly extensive material for a presentation. We wanted to take the help of a fiction, but realistic product that we could built a case around and refer to it through the presentation. We held a successful pilot presentation but then it was actually a bit slow to come and present to the target group. At the beginning of 2020, we had the opportunity to present at the an exhibition, but only for 30 minutes. Thanks to this opportunity, we had a material in place that was perfect for a digital format when the pandemic came.
