MIMIT Brevetti +/Marchi +/Disegni +

MIMIT Brevetti +/Marchi +/Disegni + is the Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy's IP support package for Italian SMEs. It sits inside the ministry's incentives system and is aimed at patent, trademark, and design work rather than broad R&D spending. The broader MIMIT page groups it with other business-innovation measures, and the voucher family is designed for firms that need practical help to protect and file industrial property. The related Voucher 3I route shows the operating model: startup and microenterprise applicants can buy professional services from attorneys and industrial-property consultants, with aid amounts of €1,000, €3,000, or €4,000 plus VAT and a €9 million budget for 2023-2024. The services cover novelty searches, drafting a patent application, and filing with the Italian Patent and Trademark Office, with some routes extending to foreign filing. The extracted program record treats the route as annual, and the application channel runs through the ministry's incentive procedures and, for the voucher route, through Invitalia. This is a fit for small firms that need to turn an invention into a defensible filing position and need outside specialists rather than a large project consortium. Companies that already have a concrete invention, a filing plan, or a prior-art question are the natural applicants. The program is narrow, practical, and built around industrial-property execution rather than open-ended innovation funding.
