Boğaziçi University will host International Conference on "Managing Intellectual Property in Universities" which became a traditional event at the campus, organized again with the contributions and collaborations of both Koç University and Middle East Technical University. This year's conference will focus on "Success Stories: From Lab To The Market".

The conference aims to raise awareness about intellectual property and to contribute both to the academia and the newly emerging Technology Transfer Ecosystem within the scope of adopted principles of intellectual property.
"IP Management @ Universities" conferences are always organized also in cooperation with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), a self-funding agency of the United Nations (UN) with 187 member states; European Patent Organization (EPO), an intergovernmental organization that was set up on the basis of the European Patent Convention (EPC) which serves 38 member states; the Turkish Patent Institute (Turk Patent), an independent legal entity of the Turkish Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology.
