Australia: IP Enforcement in Australia: What's actually happening in the courts?
The Intellectual Property Research Institute of Australia (IPRIA) and The Institute of Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys of Australia (IPTA) are holding a free public seminarin relation to IP Enforcement in Australia(What's actually happening in the courts?). The seminar will be held in Melbourne on 9 November 2005 and Sydney on 21 November 2005.
"In recent years, there has been concern expressed by some IP owners in Australia that courts are "anti-IP", and an increased interest by policy-makers in how IP rights are used and enforced in Australian courts. In response to a lack of empirical data on IP enforcement and IP litigation in Australia, IPRIA created a database of all IP enforcement decisions of Australian courts for the period 1997-2003. Kimberlee Weatherall will present the results of the study, particularly as they relate to patent and trade mark litigation, and will discuss some of the policy implications".
