AIPPI Lapland Symposium 2011

The Finnish AIPPI Group will organize in co-operation with FACG its triennial symposium on the topic of “Trade Dress Protection – A Land of Confusion?” on 31 March – 2 April 2011. The Symposium will be held in Lapland, Finland, at the Levi ski resort.

Most speakers of the Symposium are brand owners’ – such as Google’s and Nokia’s – representatives, but attorneys’ and academics’ perspectives on the topic will be covered as well. The Symposium will provide you with an excellent opportunity to meet IP attorneys, in-house counsel, brand managers and other experts within the field of IPR in an informal setting.

You will also have ample opportunity to experience Lapland through winter activities of your preference. Late March is the best time of year in Lapland for various winter activities: You can experience real winter on the sunny slopes and try any winter activity you can think of.
