Revision of the EIC IP provisions - EIC Board statement

Published on | 11 months ago

Programmes EIC   HorizonEU L+F  

The EIC Board met with the university associations to discuss the provisions on intellectual property (IP). The main concerns raised by the associations include: unclear differentiation between ‘inventorship’ and ‘authorship’ in the definition of EIC Inventors; potential barriers to knowledge transfer and the work of knowledge transfer offices posed by granting wide ranging access rights to EIC inventors; and possible conflicts with institutional, regional or national rules.

The meeting resulted in a statement on the revision of the EIC IP povisions containing a set of recommendations, regarding:

  • alignement of EIC inventor definition
  • minimum time to commit to supporting the protection and commercialisation of results
  • involvement of Technology Transfer Offices of the researchers' organisation
  • fair returns 
  • ownership of IP
  • guidance/best practices of fair and proportionate terms

PBNv2 - a MSCA ITN in the field of automotive R&D

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA) European Innovative Training Network “PBNv2 - Next generation Pass-By Noise approaches for new powertrain vehicles” started in May 2017. Their research has the shared objective of investigating the possibilities to decrease pass-by noise of vehicles.

The project is a collaboration between 17 research institutions and companies in the European automotive R&D and provides a learning environment for 14 PhD fellows. The Belgian partner is the Noise and Vibration Research Group of KU Leuven, and this project is one of the many Horizon 2020 MSCA Innovative Training Networks that the KU Leuven research group participates in.
