[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Seryeong] The Gyeongnam Intellectual Property Center of the Changwon Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Gyeongnam will launch an intellectual property talent-sharing project starting this September.

The center plans to recruit both talent donors and beneficiaries by the 31st of this month to carry out projects related to patent applications, brand and design development, targeting small businesses, social enterprises, preliminary social enterprises, and prospective startups in the region.

The recruitment targets include patent attorneys, professors, students, and others capable of donating intellectual property-related expertise, while beneficiaries can be small businesses, social enterprises, or prospective startups, with participation open to individuals or groups.

The support areas include ▲consultations on industrial property rights such as patents, utility models, trademarks, and designs ▲prior art searches for technologies, trademarks, and designs under research and development ▲customized education related to intellectual property ▲brand development tailored to the characteristics of companies or products ▲design development suited to the characteristics of companies or products.

Applicants can apply for support in up to three cases, one per field, and the center will match beneficiaries with suitable donors based on the support fields they apply for in advance.

Last year, the center conducted a total of 14 talent-sharing projects including prior art searches, brand development, and design development, and plans to select and support more than 14 projects this year as well.

Donors or beneficiary companies wishing to participate can apply through the regional intellectual property center’s website or by phone.
