ICC Publishes Report: Adjudicating Intellectual Property Disputes

The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has published a report titled Adjudicating Intellectual Property Disputes, which provides an overview of the structures and trial procedures of 'specialised intellectual property jurisdictions' (SIPJs) in countries around the world.

The ICC's report was launched on 28 April 2016 at the International Forum on Intellectual Property - 21^st Century, held in Moscow. It follows a survey of ICC members and input from attorneys and IP practitioners with hands-on litigation experience and expertise in intellectual property (IP), including from the US, the UK, Germany, India, China and Japan.

From the UK, Gowling WLG's David Barron and Ailsa Carter contributed to the ICC's analysis. Sir Robin Jacob, retired Lord Justice of Appeal, Professor of IP Law at University College London, is also noted as a contributor.
