What is www.uaipit.com?

Welcome to UAIPIT, the University of Alicante (UA) Intellectual Property (IP) and Information Technology (IT) Project!

UAIPIT.com is the international Portal on Industrial and Intellectual Property, Information Technology law and Alternative Dispute Resolution (mediation) promoted by the professors of the Area of International Private Law of the Law Faculty of the University of Alicante. It is addressed to professionals, researchers, and students interested in these important topics.

www.uaipit.com was registered on October 18, 1999 and was presented to the public on June 19, 2000 with the support of the Fundación Retevisión (Fundación Auna) which financed the launch of this Portal through a Research Project assigned to the Department of Philosophy of Law and International Private Law of the University of Alicante. UAIPIT.com has been part of the Research Project titled “Law at the service of the integration of society and business in the Information Society and Knowledge,” reference number BJU2001-085, subsidized by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation www.micinn.es.

At present, UAIPIT.com is managed by the University of Alicante's General Foundation and Directed by Prof. Lydia Esteve and Mr. Richard A. Mac Bride (please see the UAIPIT team). Thanks to a collaboration agreement with the European Patent Office (EPO), since 2006 UAIPIT. com has been developing, in conjunction with the European Patent Academy, one of the most complete calendars in the World on  Patent-related events and other IP rights.

UAIPIT.com has also several collaboration agreements with other professional and educational institutions in America, Asia and Europe. UAIPIT is very grateful for the help given by all its partners and collaborators.

Since November 2009, UAIPIT’s 10th Anniversary, we have been organizing the annual UAIPIT International Congresses in order to discuss current affairs and perspectives on topics of interest regarding IP protection and Information Technology.
