安第斯共同体和欧盟知识产权局加强知识产权合作

By PPO Abogados

安第斯共同体总秘书处 (SGCAN) 和欧盟知识产权局 (EUIPO) 签署了一份谅解备忘录,旨在进一步推进加强安第斯共同体知识产权 (IP) 体系的举措。这个由玻利维亚、哥伦比亚、厄瓜多尔和秘鲁组成的次区域将从持续支持知识产权执法和保护的努力中受益。

新协议以 2017 年 IPKey 拉丁美洲项目下开始的工作为基础。该项目的目标是提供支持,以改善整个拉丁美洲的知识产权遵守和保护。IPKey 和 SGCAN 之间的持续合作已经为成员国带来了重大成就,例如《安第斯商标决定汇编》、《工业外观设计审查手册》和《建立共同体商标的可行性研究》。

安第斯共同体社会发展、合作和知识产权总干事富兰克林·莫利纳和欧盟知识产权局执行主任若昂·内格拉奥正式签署了两机构之间的谅解备忘录。该项目旨在加强安第斯共同体的知识产权制度,提高成员国促进、保护和创造知识资产的能力。

安第斯共同体致力于促进各种知识产权工具的使用,包括原产地名称、集体商标、传统知识、艺术表现形式、工业外观设计和实用新型。
