Study Questions
2025
The substantive work of AIPPI involves the study of topical issues in IP and the development of resolutions that are debated, amended, and adopted at annual Congress meetings. Typically, there is a study question in at least each of the areas of Patents, Trademarks, Designs/Copyright, and IP Litigation.
The 2025 Congress will address issues of:
- [Patents] – Compulsory Licensing
- [Trademarks] – Exhaustion of Trademark Rights
- [Copyright] – AI and Copyright
- [Litigation] – Preliminary Injunctions
Members are encouraged to reach out to the chairs of the various Canadian committees to get involved in developing the Canadian National Group’s position on these topics for debate and discussion in Yokohama in September.
The 2024 Congress in Hangzhou concluded with adoption of four resolutions. Copies of the resolutions are available at the following links:
The resolutions adopted at earlier Congresses and all the summary reports, study guidelines, and national group reports are available from the AIPPI library here.
