That’s a wrap for VIKI’s first Meetup!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an engaging roundtable discussion on intellectual property (IP) protection in the civil and defence market. The evening provided valuable insights into the strategic importance of IP as a business tool, especially for dual-use technologies that serve both sectors.

Our experts – Gyula Pomázi, VIKI’s Director of Intellectual Property Management; Kata Szmollár, Head of Department, Ministry of Culture and Innovation and György Baksay-Nagy, Attorney-at-lay, Head of IP Trademark and Design Attorney – delivered practical guidance on building and leveraging IP portfolios. They discussed how integrating IP strategies into business plans can enhance competitiveness, secure funding, and increase company value.  Examples from industry leaders like Rheinmetall and Airbus illustrated the importance of conscious IP management, while comparisons to global practices highlighted the long-term benefits of strategic IP investment.

With events like this, VIKI reinforces its mission to provide actionable knowledge and support businesses navigating the complexities of intellectual property in both civil and defence markets. We’re excited to continue creating opportunities for meaningful dialogue and collaboration to foster innovation.
