Intellectual Property

Democratizing access to intellectual property education.

The Michelson Intellectual Property Institute empowers students, educators, budding inventors, researchers, entrepreneurs, and creators with a working knowledge of intellectual property (IP) topics. Working alongside a network of IP subject matter experts and mission-aligned institutions, Michelson IP provides high-quality resources that can serve all learners, especially those from historically marginalized communities, for whom IP can provide a means for social justice and the creation of multi-generational wealth.

We are committed to closing the IP education gap.
