Join us for the next webinar in our ongoing Regional IP Dialogue Virtual Series with guests from the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office’s IP Attaché Program. We’ll be hearing from colleagues in the U.S. Government who are on the ground in Delhi and Bangkok, as they share their expertise working on the front lines of IP protection across India, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
Highlights:
- Learn about current efforts by the U.S. government and partners throughout the region to combat illicit sales in local markets, and trafficking to consumers abroad.
- Hear updates on priority concerns for rights-holders doing business – or looking to do business – in one of the world’s most rapidly growing economic regions;
- Find out how you can help advance IP enforcement across the region, and what resources are available to assist you.
