On October 19-22, the AIPPI World Congress took place in Hagzhou. Our company was represented at the event by Anna Gdula and Rafał Witek, patent attorneys and partners.

The AIPPI Congress was a forum for exchanging ideas and experiences on new trends in the IP field. Panel sessions and workshops were dedicated to topics such as:

– IP protection in China

– the establishment of the Unified Patent Court in Europe

– the use of trademarks in the context of pharmaceutical products

– patenting of microbiomes.

Above all, it offered excellent opportunities to get in touch with experts from around the world and establish valuable new business contacts.

In particular, Rafał and Anna had numerous great meetings with representatives of Chinese IP law firms cooperating with us. They greatly enjoyed their visit the Beijing office of @Insight Intellectual Property Attorneys.

Hangzhou as the location for this year’s AIPPI turned out to be an excellent choice – the trip enabled a better understanding of Chinese culture. During their stay in China, Anna and Rafał got to visit selected tourist attractions of the Middle Kingdom.
