Patents

BIBA is involved in both pure and applied research projects. We are always committed to relaying our research findings to industrial applications. With this in mind, we regularly patent developments from our laboratories and deliver training to our scientists and students on industrial property rights and on patenting and utilisation strategies as part of their academic development. In doing this, we work closely with the InnoWi patenting and utilisation agency based in Bremen.
