Undip Faculty of Engineering Targets More Intellectual Property Rights in the Industrial Age 4.0

To support the government’s program of “Making Indonesia 4.0” in increasing innovations and creating ecosystems supporting innovations in the Industrial Era 4.0, Faculty of Engineering, Diponegoro University (Undip), on 4 – 5 December 2018 at GKU Dean Building, Faculty of Engineering, Tembalang Campus, held a “Workshop on Strategic” Management of Intellectual Property Rights, Copyright & Patent Process”. This activity was attended by Undip’s researchers,  administration staff and representatives from several universities in Indonesia. The workshop was held by Undip Faculty of Engineering in collaboration with  the National Center for Sustainable Transportation Technology (NCSTT) – ITB in the container for the Sustainable Electric Based Center for Collaborative Research (CCR), and sponsored by Sustainable Higher Education Research Alliance (SHERA)/USAID.

The workshop was opened by  Dean of Faculty of Engineering, Ir. M. Agung Wibowo, MM, MSc, PhD and invited three speakers, namely:

1) Ir. Razil, MSi, Director of Intellectual Property Rights of Information Technology (IP IT), from Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DGIP), Ministry of Law and Human Rights, who presented topic of: “Anticipation of IPR management in the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0” and “Anticipation and solutions to patent disputes and other IPR conflicts at National and International level”.

Undip Faculty of Engineering targets more IPRs in the era of Industrial 4.0. It has been known that Industry 4.0 provides more innovative potentials for researchers in the Faculty of Engineering. Industry 4.0 was marked by rapid developments of technologies, such as Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence, Human-Machine Interfaces, robotic and sensor technology, and 3D Printing technology.

Ending his speech, the Dean Agung Wibowo emphasized the importance of interdisciplinary researchers collaboration and collaboration between universities, industries and  government so that Indonesia would be successful in the era of Industry 4.0.
