Conference - Protection of IP: the fight against counterfeiting
Protection of IP: the fight against counterfeiting
The past decade has witnessed several challenges in protection of Intellectual Property. To combat the challenges, significant changes in the legal framework that deals with counterfeiting and IP violations can be observed, especially in the EU.
The policymakers, practitioners as well as academics have been focusing on this important area. Vishv Priya Kohli’s recent publication, "Counterfeit and Falsified Medicines in the EU - A Legal Perspective" (Edward Elgar Publishing) contributes to this field, specifically with respect to the pharmaceutical sector. To discuss these crucial issues and to celebrate the publication, CBS is hosting a conference entitled, ‘Protection of IP: the fight against counterfeiting’. The conference will facilitate sharing of perspectives of policymakers, practitioners, and researchers.
