Virtual Cipher is pleased to announce our partnership with CIP Gothenburg and Berkeley Universities and participation in the CIP Forum. We participated in the CIP Forum 2020, held virtually at Berkeley in December 2020.
The CIP Forum was held across a number of days and focused on sharing innovative ideas, research, and practical experiences among global actors as we enter into this “brave new world.”
Cipher hosted a Patent Analytics session at the event on 11th December, along with Richardson Oliver Law

1. Diversification (Societal Transformation) A focus on the state of development towards diversity and equality in the fields of IP, innovation, and entrepreneurship
2. Digitalization (Digital Transformation) A focus on the changing role of market collaboration and competition in an era of digital transformation
3. Globalization (Global Transformation) A focus on the increased geographical collaboration and competition in an era of global transformation
4. Institutionalization (IP System Transformation) A focus on the IP system as a core institution and its impact on innovation in an era of global, digital transformation
