The energy and environmental sector is also being shaped by unprecedented technological breakthroughs.
Driven by the green transition and the rapid acceleration of clean technologies, innovation has become both a decisive competitive advantage and a strategic asset in its own right — whether in the form of patents for energy capture and storage technologies, trade secrets related to industrial processes, rights in smart grid management software, or environmental trademarks and certifications.
In this context, protecting and enhancing the value of intellectual assets is not an option: it is a necessity.
