Thought leaders share IP insights with PitchMark at AIPPI World Congress

The International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property, known as AIPPI (Association Internationale pour la Protection de la Propriété Intellectuelle), is the world’s leading non-profit association dedicated to the development and improvement of laws for IP protection.

Based in Switzerland, it has over 8,000 members from 131 countries, and works to promote the protection of IP both internationally and nationally. This year, PitchMark is proud to be the Platinum Sponsor of the AIPPI World Congress, the organisation’s annual event for its members to discuss issues related to IP law.

On October 13, we will be sharing an exciting line-up of online video content with AIPPI World Congress attendees, featuring insights from thought leaders in the legal world.
