Route du Rhum 2026: IPSILON at Saint-Malo for a conference on AI and intellectual property

As Saint-Malo prepares to vibrate to the rhythm of the Route du Rhum 2026, IPSILON, partner of skipper Fabrice Amedeo, invites its clients and partners to an exclusive experience of exchanges around AI and intellectual property, followed by a VIP visit to the departure village.

Fabrice Amedeo and the "Route du Rhum" 2026

For several years, IPSILON has supported skipper Fabrice Amedeo , whose sporting project is distinguished in particular by its environmental and scientific dimension. Thanks to the sensors onboard his IMOCA, the sailor contributes to the collection of oceanographic data useful for research and a better understanding of the state of the oceans. This approach, which combines technological innovation, data analysis, and a commitment to preserving the marine environment, resonates with values that are particularly dear to the IPSILON teams.

A legendary offshore race, the Route du Rhum 2026 will once again bring together the greatest sailors in Saint-Malo before their solo crossing to Guadeloupe.

A conference dedicated to AI and intellectual property

How to protect and promote innovation in the age of AI?

Artificial intelligence is already transforming research and development practices, and more broadly, innovation, in many sectors. But how can an innovation developed with the help of AI be protected, and what are the impacts on intellectual property strategies?

At this conference, Thomas Leconte and Hugues Dutreix will analyze the legal, strategic and economic issues related to the use of artificial intelligence in innovation processes.

Can AI be recognized as an inventor? How can an innovation developed with the help of AI be protected and promoted?

Through key questions, participants will discover new reflexes to adopt within your R&D department or organization.

An immersion into the heart of the Route du Rhum

To extend the experience, participants will visit the Route du Rhum starting village. This visit will offer the opportunity to discover what goes on behind the scenes of the race, share a friendly moment, and fully experience the unique atmosphere that precedes the start of this iconic competition.
