Welcome to the IP Service
World 2011
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Last year‘s IP Service World has been a great success! We could welcome more than 200 delegates as well as 20 sponsor partners and exhibitors. So we can truly say: This event became the new rising star in the European sky.
Today, we are proud to present the follow-up conference and trade exhibition in Noordwijkerhout/Amsterdam.
Within two days the attendees will gain a comprehensive overview of best practice solutions for any aspect of professional IP management. You will get to hear captivating key note speeches and take part in interesting workshops, individual round-table discussions as well as specially customized demo forums. Let yourself be inspired by leading IP experts contributing to the event.
The international trade fair of the IP Service World is an absolute must for all IP professionals and decision makers. Here you will learn about effective ways of organizing your IP management, raising efficiency and reducing costs – without downsizing your IP protection. The IP Service World lets you find tailor-made support for your needs.
New in this year are six colour-coded content areas, which give you clear guidance through the IP Service World. This will help you to orientate yourself even better as to which parts of the conference programme and trade exhibition will meet best your individual requirements and questions.
Don´t miss the possibility to discuss requests and experiences with providers and colleagues at this unique platform of a combined conference and trade exhibition.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Noordwijkerhout!

Greetings from the conference chair person
Managing an IP portfolio for a company or for clients is a complex task. No company or law firm is able to do everything inhouse. A large number of service providers offer their help for accomplishing this task. The services offered cover annuities & renewals, IP information & search services, IP software, IP management, valuation & exploitation, legal advice, filing and others.
The task of IP professionals is i.a. to decide what should be done inhouse and what can better be done with the help of service providers. The IP Service World 2011 gives you a state-of-the-art overview about what is available in the market place today.
The IP Service World brings together the IP professionals and the service providers. It is a unique exhibition and conference that allows you to efficiently choose the service providers that meet your needs – and to avoid costly and lengthy search and trial and error.
Don´t miss the opportunity to discuss requests and experiences with providers and colleagues. Welcome to the IP Service World 2011.
