Stakeholder consultation with Georgian authorities on enforcement guidelines and law amendments

On 6 June 2022, the EU Georgia Intellectual Property project (EUGIPP) and Sakpatenti (the National Intellectual Property Center of Georgia) will organise another stakeholder consultation to discuss the draft guidelines and law amendments related to IP rights enforcement practices. This capacity-building event will target representatives from relevant enforcement state authorities.

The consultation will follow up on the conclusions of the most recent meeting with enforcement authorities on 5-6 April. It will:

• allow stakeholders to continue discussing EU legislation, prosecution and institutional practices with a view to further aligning EU practice;
• allow participants to exchange their views on current Georgian legislation in the field of IP enforcement to strengthen the relations between the parties involved in the reform process;
• consolidate a network of experts who will collaborate on IP enforcement matters in the future.

This activity is part of the EUGIPP’s 2022 Annual Work Plan and will enhance the existing collaboration between Sakpatenti and the stakeholders responsible for enforcing IP rights in Georgia.
