The objective of the present project is the creation of a new Chair in “European Innovation Policy” at University of Basilicata (Department of Mathematics, Computer Sciences and Economics). The teaching course proposed in this project goes in the direction of stimulating teaching, research and debating activities in a crucial area of European integration studies in order to promote innovation through the creation of that knowledge base which is of vital importance to build an innovation ecosystem. The present project contributes to set up a productive ground for innovation through research, educational and dissemination activities on three of the main topics of the EU innovation policy. In the first year, the course will be on the Innovation Union strategy; in the second year, the focus will be on the Unitary protection for intellectual property rights; in the last year, the topic will be technology transfer and cooperation agreements in the perspective of a single innovation market for Europe. The target groups of the teaching course will be the students of the University of Basilicata as well as scholars, civil society, institutional representatives and policy makers at local, regional and national level. According to the multi-disciplinary profile of the proposed Chair, workshops, seminars and lecture series will be organized each year on topics concerning economic, business and legal aspects of innovation policy, intellectual property, technology transfer and antitrust.The results of all the activities conducted in the three-year course (teaching, debating and research activities), will be gathered in a new book titled “Patent Protection and Technology Transfer: Towards the Single Innovation Market for Europe”, which will be a helpful tool to disseminate research results to a wider international audience.
