Role of DIP to Support Promotion of Innovation and Technology Diffusion

Coordinate with science-related agencies/institutions/SMEs IP education/training : how to conduct proper

search in each field, how to make use of patent information

IP clinic : how to get proper protection, how to solve infringement problem, how to get funded (capitalization scheme), how to evaluate IP, how to get tax refund/rebate, etc.

Strengthen TLO : IP portfolio, local community center for IP management

Role of DIP to Support Promotion of Innovation and Technology Diffusion (continued)

Provide effective patent database search Search 6 offices in 1 click (WIPO, EPO,

USPTO, JPO, KIPO, and DIP) Provide match-making for innovators

and investors www.thaiipmartcom (1,085 inventions / 12

success cases)

How to Tackle and DIP’s Strategies

Create IP culture Use top companies such as SCG as a role

model Train IP trainers from universities

Embed into top policy and national agenda Embed IP into constitution and insert it as

one of national agenda Spin off as self-sustained agency

Partly or wholly
