As part of the ERA Chair project “Hidden Phases in 2D Quantum Materials” of the Center for Solid State Physics and New Materials at the Institute of Physics Belgrade, a workshop on intellectual property (IP) protection was held on Tuesday, October 27, 2026.
The workshop, entitled “Intellectual Property Rights and Advanced Patent Search Strategies”, covered an introduction to various intellectual property rights, the patent system, and the use of the European patent database Espacenet for searching patent documentation.
The training was delivered by Saša Zdravković and Jelena Tešić from the Education and Information Centre of the Intellectual Property Office. The examples also included patent documents in the field of quantum materials, while representatives of the Institute actively participated in the workshop by asking questions relevant to their research activities.
