 High-quality standards and
interoperability are basic building
blocks for the Digital Single
Market. They are the 'glue' that
holds its different parts together.
They allow innovators to scale up
their products, and to compete
globally.
Standards are a highly strategic
area; Essential for raising the
competitiveness of European
industry. They will shape the
success of European industry.
Standard-setting is vital for
industrial and innovation
leadership.

L2Pro
A Mobile Learning Platform
to Help SMEs Bring their Innovations to Market

The Challenge:
R&D-intensive SMEs in Europe often lack the resources, expertise or time to adequately
understand how to effectively utilize the IP system to attract investment, protect and successfully
commercialize their innovations

The Solution:
L2Pro was developed to help participating SMEs better understand how to protect their
innovations; acquire and/or transfer IP rights; access capital to finance their innovations;
integrate IP considerations into their company business model; and obtain value from their R&D
efforts
The L2Pro content is made available to SMEs via an online platform and complementary mobile
application, enabling them to learn anywhere and anytime
Originally launched in Germany (with Fraunhofer IAO) and the UK (with the UK Intellectual
Property Office), L2Pro extended to Italy in 2015 (with the Polytechnic University of Milan, the
Italian Patent and Trademark Office and the Ugo Bordoni Foundation) and France in 2016 (with 20
