About the Event

National-Level Webinar on ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) in IP

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) efficiently alleviates obstacles in the enforcement of jurisdiction-specific Intellectual Property (IP) laws and their interactions with international obligations. Arbitration, for instance, offers a higher degree of confidentiality towards IP disputes involving sensitive information and wider enforceability, and faster, more neutral, and expert decision-making.

Dispute resolution mechanisms can be administered by individual nations’ IP offices in collaboration with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), as in the case of Singapore and the United States, or by specific ADR regulatory bodies, like in India. This webinar will provide insights on ADR mechanisms for IP, technology, and life sciences disputes and share industry experts’ experiences in handling them. Case studies from the WIPO Center for Arbitration and Mediation will help attendees understand the manner of regulating disputes they are seeking. The speakers will also discuss opportunities and paths that attendees can explore.
