Supported by a <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foerderverein-gewerblicher-rechtsschutz.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">friends\u2019 association<\/a> comprising renowned companies and patent attorneys, the research center therefore addressed all issues related to research and teaching in the fields of patent, trademark, utility model, and design law. The research center, along with the support association, was dissolved on September 16, 2026.  <\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-437539252\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1663791631\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-12239847\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":78,"featured_media":28292,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-transparent-header-light.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-24540","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/24540","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/78"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24540"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/24540\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31809,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/24540\/revisions\/31809"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28292"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itm.nrw\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
