Webinar Series under the Entrepreneurs Online Network (EON) Initiative will be held every Friday starting from 7 October 2022 for five consecutive weeks. The Webinar Series consists of five (5) Sessions which are focused on trending topics of general interest in the agrofood sector. Each Session, to last one hour and 15 minutes, will feature a segment that connects the industry trends to intellectual property (IP) as well as programs, tools and resources available from WIPO. 

WIPO is inviting interested and relevant representatives from SMEs and start-ups in the agrofood sector (aggrotech and foodtech) that are primed to scale up (expansion of markets – domestic and/or foreign) and have IP or IP portfolio (registered rights and their management) to join the Webinar.  

Following the Webinar Series, further phases of EON Initiative will be implemented with interested SMEs/start-ups to support them in their respective journey in leveraging their IP for business growth and competitiveness. 

The Webinar  Series will be delivered through Zoom platform. Participants are encouraged to register online at https://wipo-int.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SGszyJxAQBKJlR8rl6XQ-Q.
