DG Trade organises meeting on ACTA
From OHIM, we learn that DG Trade is
organising a meeting in Brussels on 22 March to inform and consult
interested parties about the negotiation of the Anti-Counterfeiting
Trade Agreement (ACTA). According to the press release, "The goal of ACTA is to provide an improved framework for
countries committed to intellectual property protection, with a view to
effectively address the challenges of IPR infringement. The event,
which requires pre-registration, takes place in the Charlemagne
Building from 10.00am to 12.30pm." As ACTA has attracted criticism for secrecy and lack of transparency in the progress of negotiations (see IPKat's post here), this meeting might just be a pleasant surprise.
