ABPI, along with other entities, is part of the recently created Technical Group, created by the Interministerial Group on Intellectual Property (GIPI), of the Ministry of Economy, to assess the regulatory framework for intellectual property.
Among the responsibilities of the Technical Group are the identification of bills on industrial property pending before the National Congress for the technical position of the GIPI; mapping of the provisions of the normative framework of industrial property law that need to be reformed; survey of international standards similar or related to the provisions to be reviewed; and elaboration of a final report consolidating the provisions of the normative framework of intellectual property that need reforms.
The GIPI, of which the ABPI is a part, was created by the GIPI/ME Resolution of July 1, 2021, which, in turn, approved the Action Plan for the implementation and monitoring of the ENPI (National Intellectual Property Strategy) to the biennium August/2021 to July/2023.
The Technical Group was established by means of Resolution GIPI/ME n°3, of last February 25th, and enters into force on March 7th.
