The Research and Community Service Agency (LPPM) at Universitas Dian Nuswantoro (Udinus) tied a collaboration with the Research, Technology, and Community Service Directorate of the Ministry of Education to host a training program. 

The program was attended by 100 participants from various universities, with Kapas Ballroom Hotel Aruss Semarang being the venue of it. On that occasion, Prof. Dr. Ir.

Agro., IPU., (the Director of Research, Technology, and Community Service) were also present to give an opening speech before the participants. The program lasted from October 27th to 29th, 2022, with knowledge concerning invention patentability and patent writing being taught at the program.

During his interview, Dr. Eng. Yuliman Purwanto, M.Eng., (the Director of the LPPM at Udinus) explained that this training program served as a way to enhance the competence capacity of human resources, particularly faculty members and researchers of various universities in Indonesia in the field of patenting. Before this training program, all participants were also taught the methods of writing a document of the patent specification.

“Melalui pelatihan ini mereka juga diminta untuk melakukan praktek penulisan deskipsi paten yang dipandu langsung oleh tim pengarah. Kami harapkan dari pelatihan ini akan muncul paten-paten baru dari para peserta,” jelasnya.

Sejauh ini, Udinus terus mendorong para dosennya untuk mampu menghasilkan paten-paten yang berguna bagi masyarakat luas,” ungkap Prof. Edi disela memberikan keterangannya mengenai kegiatan pelatihan penulisan deskripsi permohonan paten.
