    Welcome to IPotencia

    A transformative initiative meticulously designed to empower both women and youth by cultivating a strong awareness of Intellectual Property rights. 

    Building on the Latin aphorism “Scientia Potentia Est” meaning “Knowledge is Power”, we recognize that IP knowledge is a powerful tool that empowers individuals to reach their full potential. By imparting a comprehensive understanding of IP principles, we aim to equip women and youth with the skills and confidence needed to navigate the landscapes of innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship.

    Our training programs are offered in English, French and Arabic, and are accessible both onsite (companies, universities, schools, workshops, startups and entrepreneurs’ events…) and online for a flexible and inclusive learning experience.
