Study and mentorship visits
In line with international and European best practices and in support of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the African Union’s Agenda 2063, AfrIPI aims to create, protect, utilise, administer and enforce intellectual property rights across Africa. To achieve this, AfrIPI organised two Study visits in 2022.
From 6 to 13 July 2022, seven Egyptian judges visited the EUIPO in Alicante, Spain. The visit intended to provide members of the Egyptian Council of State with a better understanding of the EUIPO’s working processes and to amend the draft Egyptian trade mark and design rules. This was accomplished through meetings with specific departments, as well as unique workshops to enhance and clarify understanding of the guidelines methodology.
This Activity will continue in AWP3.
