AKRAN Intellectual Property

I am very glad to present the paper co-authored with Christophe Geiger on the role of the AI Office (and beyond) in addressing the current copyright and Generative AI conundrum at the next EPIP Congress hosted by Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna and Università di Pisa (EPIP Pisa): https://lnkd.in/dxG95Ekw Ci vediamo a Pisa! 🏛️ 🇮🇹 🍝

The accession of #Qatar to the World Intellectual Property Organization – WIPO administered Madrid Protocol, which entered into force on August 3, 2024, is welcome news to brand owners and their IP attorneys. Whilst the individual fee for extending an International Trademark Registration to Qatar is a hefty 1.127 Swiss francs per international class of goods/services, brand owners and practitioners are nevertheless expected to benefit greatly from the simplified administrative procedures. Qatar has become the fourth country in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) alongside Bahrain (2005), Oman (2007) and the UAE (2021) to join the Madrid Protocol. Hopefully Kuwait and Saudi Arabia will follow suit. #intellectualproperty #madridprotocol
