41st World Intellectual Property Congress
from Miscellaneous Group 
This event has passed.
Saturday, September 6, 2008 - Thursday, September 11, 2008, Event times NA



AIPPI's (Association Internationale pour la Protection de la Propriete Intellectuelle) 41st World Intellectual Property Congress will be in the United States for the first time in 33 years. AIPPI is concerned with all types of intellectual property rights (including patents, trademarks, and copyrights). It is the oldest global intellectual property association, and has the respect and ear of governments and global organizations, such as the World Intellectual Property Organization and the World Trade Organization. Since it was founded in 1897, AIPPI has been consulted (and still is) by decision makers worldwide on current intellectual property issues.

The United States Group of AIPPI is honoured to serve as host for this important biennial Congress, which will take place 6-11 September 2008. The Congress will address many current issues, concerning harmonization of intellectual property laws, cross border enforcement of intellectual property rights, and fundamental issues of intellectual property protection. We expect over 2,000 participants, including highly experienced and respected outside intellectual property counsel, corporate intellectual property counsel, academics and judges from around the world.

The Congress will be at Boston's beautiful new Convention and Exhibition Center. Boston is a particularly appropriate venue for this meeting, as it is the home of two of the world's premier universities and research institutions, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, and the location of many famous innovations, such as the telephone, the safety razor, and many important breakthroughs in medicine and life sciences.
