About CIPRPF — Centre for Intellectual Property Research, Promotion and Facilitation
CIPRPF runs from India SME Forum's offices in Andheri West, Mumbai, and Kalkaji, New Delhi. It is a facilitation service rather than a selective programme: MSMEs book counselling with IP experts and get help taking a filing through.
What you get
- Counselling sessions with IP experts on what the IP regime means for your business
- Help with trademark, domestic and foreign patent, design and geographical indication registration
- Reimbursement support for registration costs, up to the limits set by the government scheme
- IP advisory, patentability searches, technology gap analyses and help commercialising IP
Who can apply
- MSMEs and entrepreneurs wanting to register or protect intellectual property
- No selection, stage or sector gate is stated
How to apply: Fill the enquiry form on the CIPRPF page — it asks for your enterprise, your name and role, contact details, location and which filing you want — or write to ciprpf@indiasmeforum.com.
