30-Aug-2018
SAO PAULO - Abu-Ghazaleh Intellectual Property (AGIP) represented by its Vice-President Marketing and Executive Director, Mr. Nabil Salamé, and the Business Development officer of Brazil office, Mr. Issam Saldanha, participated in ABPI’s XXXVIII International Congress of Intellectual Property which was held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, August 19 – 21, 2018.
The Congress was very successful and gathered above 700 participants mostly from Brazil, with some from Latin America and few from outside the American continent. It was a great opportunity for networking and promoting AGIP and TAG-Org services.
The Congress panels focused on two main topics: The Brazilian bureaucracy that obstructs the adoption of Madrid Protocol; and the future of IP with the advance of digital revolution.
During their stay in Sao Paulo, Mr. Salamé and Mr. Saldanha visited the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce to attend a seminar on the importance of protecting trademarks internationally. Mr. Salamé intervened at the end of the seminar to give brief information on TAG-Org and AGIP as well as the GCC patent office and the GCC unified trademark law which are the only IP treaties in the Arab Region.
It was a good opportunity to meet with Brazilian entrepreneurs who are interested in exploring the Arab market as well as some overseas markets, and to renew contacts with the board of the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce.
