Workshop on the valuation of Intellectual Property - 2025
Commercialization
WIPO
2025. December 02.
organized by
the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)
and
the Hungarian Intellectual Property Office (HIPO)
The workshop aims to provide a broad overview of IP valuation, starting from international standards as key reference points
and moving toward their practical application within the Hungarian context.
Our goal is to encourage open dialogue with the financial community — including investors, business valuators, and banks — and to strengthen trust and collaboration between the IP community, investors, and policymakers. This will help better integrate intangible assets into the wider financial ecosystem.
