A Probably Coming Up Treaty For Argentina?

About a year and half ago, when the new Argentine authorities took office, the way seemed to be paved for the accession of our country to the PCT. The word game in the title obviously makes reference to the acronym that designates the Patent Cooperation Treaty, a treaty of global scope to which Argentina has remained isolated for quite a long time

A few months after President Mauricio Macri swore in, and upon the designation of Dr. Dámaso A. Pardo as President of the INPI (National Institute of Industrial Property), the IP local authority, the expectations of Argentina becoming a signatory to the treaty soared. As of today, however, the outlook for accession offers no definite date.
