IP Key LA, along with the Mexican Institute of Intellectual Property (IMPI), has organized a Seminar on the Enforcement of Geographical Indications in Mexico City, in order to approach the existing measures in the area and how those can be improved, as well as exchanging information on transnational cases. The activity will provide a platform for discussion of best practices related to the enforcement of GIs and it’s expected to help participants prepare for the implementation of Mexican commitments under the modernized FTA.
