We’re really looking forward to sharing thoughts about intellectual property protection in the agroindustry with students from the Universtities of Bologna and Bolzano and from Technische Universitaet of Munich, Germany during the Academic Basecamp to take place in the Haus der Familie of Renon, Bolzano in the Italian Alps on 22-24 February 2017.

The Academic Basecamp, organised for students of the International Master in Horticultural Science and held jointly by the Universities of Bologna and Bolzano, aims to deepen students’ knowledge about the horticultural industry and its job opportunities, stimulate the exchange amoung participating universities and improve students’ soft skills.

The event’s program sees companies, associations and consultants discuss various aspects of agroindustry and students present their project works.

Experts and university professors will focus on how students can improve their soft skills; among them is plant breeders’ rights expert Stefano Borrini, Partner of Società Italiana Brevetti, who will hold a lecture about protecting intellectual property rights in the agroindustry on 23 February.
