3. Training and Activation of the KI Center and KI Corner Website: The KI Center team will receive training from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights around June 2024. ULM is asked to activate the KI Center and KI Corner websites. If realized, this will make ULM the first university in Indonesia with integrated IPR services.
4. IPR Service Fees for MSMEs: IPR service fees for MSMEs must not exceed the PNBP (Non-Tax State Revenue) rate.
5. Patent Socialization and Lecturer Data: On April 18 2024, there will be socialization regarding patents at ULM. Apart from that, data on lecturers who have patents that have been commercialized will be introduced. DJKI (Directorate General of Intellectual Property) will provide a booth for 3 people.
6. Outreach to PTNs, PTS, and Regency/City Governments: Once the center is ready, the next stage is to carry out outreach to State Universities (PTN), Private Universities (PTS), and Regency/City Governments in South Kalimantan.

All these steps aim to strengthen intellectual property protection and provide better services to the public and MSMEs. ULM is committed to becoming a superior, trusted and independent intellectual property center
