This year, the Congress focuses on disputes arising in the digital environment, analyzes the different types of intellectual property infringements, the legal gaps, and controversial case law issues, providing a unique forum for reflection on the digitization of works, Internet downloads, file sharing through P2P networks, new business models and social networks, the problems of plagiarism on television, trade mark infringement in the digital environment, and the controversy concerning the protection of software and business methods. The approach will be practical and participative at all the times.
In this II Congress, UAIPIT awards its distinction to Mr. Alberto Casado Cerviño, General Director of the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office (in recognition to his contribution to the protection of Intellectual Property and his support to UAIPIT Project).
