Objective 7. Assist researchers develop a rigorous approach to IP<br />
protecti<strong>on</strong>.<br />
Because nanotechnology is embry<strong>on</strong>ic, fast moving and<br />
multidisciplinary it gives rise to a unique set of problems in the<br />
area of intellectual property protecti<strong>on</strong>.<br />
Proposed Initiative<br />
In c<strong>on</strong>sultati<strong>on</strong> with IP experts Enterprise Ireland will<br />
undertake, <strong>on</strong> a pilot basis, an assessment of the procedures<br />
currently being used by Irish researchers while undertaking<br />
