About me

The European IP Helpdesk has been a long-standing partner in the "Friends of the EEN" initiative, supporting the Enterprise Europe Network with tailored IP services since 2013. A key pillar of this collaboration is the IP Ambassador Scheme, which equips selected EEN advisors with advanced IP knowledge and tools to better support SMEs along their innovation journeys.

At the EEN Annual Conference 2025, the EU IP Helpdesk and its IP Ambassadors will co-host the session “Safeguarding Innovation: Practical IP Strategies for European SMEs in Global Markets” (27 November, 14:15–15:45), showcasing good practices and hands-on support approaches for internationalising SMEs.
