Validating The Market For An Immersive IP Simulation, Visualisation and Management System

对于英国经济来说，创新是竞争优势的关键。根据英国知识产权局的统计数据，英国公司每年在创意和知识上的投资超过了建筑和机械。创新的基础是知识产权制度。然而，这个制度可能很难理解，而且企业在创新时通常不具备识别有价值的资产和避免代价高昂的侵权行为的能力。“我们拥有一支精通知识产权的劳动力队伍，以应对快速变化的工作场所的挑战，这一点至关重要。”--英国前科学大臣戴维·威利茨。IP Quest的雄心是通过为有效的创新建模和规划创建复杂的知识产权可视化工具，并通过模拟和身临其境的学习环境彻底改变与主题的接触，从而改变关键知识产权技能的获得。IP Quest目前提供便利的研讨会，使用创新的身临其境的学习环境，过去5年来用于向企业和本科生教授这一复杂的主题，并消除获取知识产权知识的障碍。IP Quest建议将这一背景作为一个创新的、以用户为中心的数字平台的发射台，该平台结合了最先进的机器学习、遗传算法和交互式3D图形技术，以提供先进的商业模拟工具，用于测试和完善知识产权战略。通过该平台，企业将对知识产权有无与伦比的直观了解，让他们能够最大限度地管理和利用自己的知识产权资产。该系统将提供应用学习、更多的参与和可持续的学习成果，并改变平台对更广泛受众的可及性。该项目旨在验证关键部门的市场，确定市场的性质和规模，并提供稳健和可实现的项目计划，以提供开创性的信息技术学习和可视化解决方案

For the UK economy, innovation is crucial to competitive edge. According to statistics fromthe UK Intellectual Property Office, UK firms annually invest more in ideas and knowledgethan buildings and machinery. Innovation is underpinned by the intellectual property (IP)system.However, this system can be difficult to understand, and businesses are typically ill equippedto recognise valuable assets and avoid costly infringements as they innovate. “It is vital thatwe have an IP literate workforce to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing workplace.” -David Willets, former UK Minister for Science.IP Quest’s ambition is to transform the acquisition of vital IP skills, by creating asophisticated IP visualisation tool for effective innovation modelling and planning andrevolutionising engagement with the subject through simulation and an immersive learningenvironment.IP Quest currently provides facilitated workshops using an innovative immersive learningenvironment, used over the last 5 years to teach this complex subject to businesses andundergraduates and remove the barriers to accessing IP knowledge. IP Quest proposes to usethis background as the launch pad for an innovative, user-centric digital platform thatincorporates state of the art machine learning, genetic algorithms and interactive 3D graphicsto provide an advanced business simulation tool for testing and refining IP strategies. Throughuse of the platform, businesses will gain an unparalleled intuitive understanding of IP,allowing them to manage and exploit their IP assets to full effect. The system will provideapplied learning, increasing engagement and sustainable learning outcomes as well astransforming the accessibility of the platform for a much wider audience.This project aims to validate the market in key sectors, determine the nature and size of themarket and provide a robust and achievable project plan for delivering a pioneering IPlearning and visualisation solution
