By Guy José Bendaña-Guerrero & Asociados
Nicaragua Diseña was created in October 2012 by the Nicaraguan Institute of Tourism (Intur, for its acronym in Spanish), as the first official exhibition dedicated to the Nicaraguan design. Since its 2012 edition it has set a new exhibition format throughout the country: an innovative incubator that for two consecutive days presents different artists through interactive booths and simultaneous gateways.
The event looks to awaken a creative consciousness in Nicaraguan youth, establish a platform for new generations of artists and designers to interact with local and international industry members, and promote creativity and national talent in order to attract potential buyers and domestic and foreign investors.
The 2016 edition will bring new products, trainings, exhibitors, designers and special guests, all united through runways, conferences, seminars and stands.
Registration for participants will be open until June 12. Among the categories to be presented are: food, fashion, design and visual communication, visual arts, architecture, product design and events.

GUY JOSE BENDAÑA GUERRERO & ASOCIADOS has a long and prosperous tradition in the field of intellectual property (IP) in Nicaragua, with roots that go back to more than 100 years, resulting on long-term relationships with renowned clients and attorneys worldwide.
The firm has its origins in the law firm Henry Caldera & Henry Caldera-Pallais, founded in 1907 by Mr. Henry Caldera. That same year of 1907, through the efforts of Mr. Caldera, Nicaragua had its first Trademark Law. In the late 1930’s, Mr. Caldera’s oldest son, Dr. Henry Caldera-Pallais, after studying law in Nicaragua, attended the University of Michigan, where he graduated as a Registered U.S. Patent Attorney. Dr. Caldera-Pallais in 1964 was a founding member of the Interamerican Association of Intellectual Property (ASIPI), the first regional intellectual property organization in the Americas. The firm continued to grow during the administration of Dr. Franklin Caldera, son of Dr. Caldera-Pallais, who obtained his doctoral degree in law from the Universidad Centroamericana in 1973.
Since 1985 the current partners, Dr. Guy José Bendaña Guerrero and Mrs. Blanca Aragón de Bendaña, took over the management of the firm. Dr. Bendaña Guerrero, Director of the firm, has distinguished himself as one of the most respected authorities in Central America in the field of intellectual property and law in general, being the author of several books such as “Course of Industrial Property Law”, “Study of the new Laws of Industrial Property” and “New Study of Contracts “, among others. Mrs. Aragón de Bendaña has served as the firm’s general manager and, thanks to her excellent management, the firm has been in constant growth, with a highly qualified staff committed to excellence. Since 1996, partner Julián José Bendaña Aragón joined the firm, and has been standing out as one of the most recognized attorneys in the field of intellectual property.
