About us

LES România is a non-profit, non-governmental organization dedicated to advancing intellectual property, licensing, technology transfer and innovation commercialization in Romania.

Who we are

We bring together technology companies, IP owners, entrepreneurs, universities, research organisations, intellectual property professionals and other experts working at the intersection of technology, intellectual property and business.

Part of a global community

As part of the international Licensing Executives Society (LES) community, we connect Romanian professionals and organisations with a global network of expertise, experience and business opportunities.

LES International

In 1974, the overarching international organization, LES International, was set up. LES is strictly non-political and is free to grow through the creation of member societies throughout the world which conform to agreed professional standards, irrespective of politics or the state of technology development. On 1 July 2000, LES International was incorporated, and its official name is LES International Inc. Its Board of Directors is elected by a Board of International Delegates, the appointed representatives of each national or regional society.
