问题 Strengthening IP protection: from legislation to enforcement
Laws are in place to protect intellectual property (IP) rights in the Gulf. But enforcement has generally been weak. However, as governments look at ways to diversify away from oil, IP protection is becoming a bigger concern; not just to protect local knowledge-based industries, but also to attract foreign investment. This senior-level event will present a series of practical recommendations for change, drawing on the expertise of business and political leaders in the Gulf region.
IP protection is a global as well as a regional issue, and Gulf-initiatives are being buttressed by negotiations with the WTO and US trade representatives. Participants at this conference will debate how best to combine legislation with enforcement to solve region-specific problems. To discover how best to tackle issues from copyright infringement to counterfeiting, reserve your place now for Economist Conferences’ Protecting Intellectual Property in the Gulf.
