SEAD™ SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Introduction to SEAD™

SEAD™ is an esteemed and popular IP drafting curriculum, created by FICPI’s Training & Education Committee.

The SEAD™ project developed out of the perceived need for better training in intellectual property in developing countries. 

Under FICPI’s strategic plan, The FICPI Academy, supported by the Training & Education Committee, focuses on providing training and education to members and potential members in countries and regions where the profession is less well developed. 

In pursuit of this goal, for the past 20 years, The FICPI Academy has offered students from around the world the SEAD™ curriculum on patent drafting. 

SEAD™ is divided into three segments. Tutoring is delivered by experienced practitioners from various jurisdictions including Europe, USA, and Canada. The tutors represent technical fields from electrical engineering, mechanics, biology, and chemistry.Tutor Group

The next SEAD™ course will be held in Singapore beginning in early 2024. Details will follow soon.
