Arab-British Chamber of Commerce IP event in London

News of an event organised by The Arab-British Chamber of Commerce in December 2013 in London entitled the "International Intellectual Property Rights Conference: Combating Transnational Intellectual Property Crime". The event was billed as comprising high-level discussions, offering unparalleled networking opportunities, and providing a unique opportunity to learn about and discuss best practices that can be utilized to combat transnational organized intellectual property crime. The event was also expected to witness the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding to establish the Saudi-British Arbitration Centre to promote commercial arbitration as an effective alternative to litigation.

This part of the Empty Quarter was not able to attend the event but would welcome news from any reader who did.
