The Intellectual Property Rights Helpdesk was established by the European Commission to support Europe's R&D community and SME's with IPR issues.

We provide an extensive multilingual website which contains over 6,000 pages of IP information on everything ranging from Patents to Copyright.

There is a FREE Legal IP Helpline service which can be accessed by e-mail, telephone or Fax.

We also produce an extensive range of tools to help laypersons understand IP issues involved in Research, for example we have developed an extensive tutorial on the European Patent Office esp[_at_]cenet patent database facility, the tutorial guides users through the esp[_at_]cenet and shows laypersons among other things how to check if their research is original, thereby saving time and money.

For further information have a look at the following website http://www.cordis.lu/ipr-helpdesk/ or send an e-mail to info[_at_]ipr-helpdesk.org

If you would like to order a FREE copy of the IPR-Helpdesk CD-ROM which includes our latest tools and guides then send an e-mail request to promo[_at_]ipr-helpdesk.org
