News that the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST), the home of the Saudi Patent Office, will host the 3rd Saudi Intellectual Property Forum on 22/23/24 April 2014. The Forum will focus on Intellectual Property Rights and Enforcement and the draft program refers to speakers from KACST, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, WIPO, the World Health Organisation, the Ministry of Information and Culture, the General Customs Authority, Microsoft, the BSA, Autodisc, and others.
The Forum is mentioned in the events page of KACST here, and now there is useful information on the Forum website here.
The Forum appears not to be a continuation of the Arab Forum for IPR Protection (http://www.ipr.gov.sa/).
This part of the Empty Quarter welcomes news of this event, timed to be so close to World Intellectual Property Day, and hopes there will be as much action as there is talk.
