We will host mock trials and panel discussions featuring legal professionals and administrative judges from various countries to explore judicial decisions in intellectual property disputes and recent IP topics.
As an event offering the latest insights into the IP systems and practices of not only Japan but also countries worldwide, it has been well-attended and highly acclaimed every year since its inaugural gathering in 2017. In this 10th symposium, practitioners, including legal professionals and administrative judges from Japan, Korea, Europe, and the United States, will present a comprehensive program covering the latest discussions and challenges in intellectual property dispute resolution.
