Intellectual Property
controversies and disputes become more and more cross border in the context of
the IV Industrial Revolution and the enforcement of IP rights in this global
environment raises new and complex challenges to the traditional models of
solving conflicts through national courts. Issues like the rules for
adjudication of international disputes (jurisdiction), the applicable law and
the cross-border recognition and enforcement of judgments involving IP claims
still differ widely from country to country, fostering therefore the
development of an environment deprived of legal certainty which severely
affects the enforcement of IP rights all over the world. Consequently, the
adoption of model provisions on the private international law aspects of IP
which could be used as guiding for national and international legislation has
become an urgent matter.
The 15th Global
Digital Encounter organized by Fide Foundation and TIPSA (Transatlantic
Intellectual Property Academy) will discuss the main lines of the 13 December
2020 Kyoto Guidelines drafted by a group of 36 renowned scholars from 19
jurisdictions under the auspices of the International Law Association.
