Again this year, Intellectual Property (IP) will be shining at McGill Law! The Faculty will host a number of activities over the week to keep you up to date about IP. Please join us.

IP Week is organized by the Center of Intellectual Property Policy (CIPP) of McGill University (http://cipp.mcgill.ca/).

On the program this year:

During the first half of the week, practitioners from large Montreal firms will come share their passion and experience practicing law in their respective realms of expertise in IP.

2) CIPP seminars 2012-2013, in collaboration with Lallemand Inc.

This year, the CIPP has hosted international IP experts for an engaging crowd faculty members, students, and professionals. Our last seminar for this academic year features Prof. Marc-André Gagnon (Carleton University).

3) Field trip

Prof. Pierre-Emmanuel Moyse and the Intellectual Property, Information Technology and Policy Club (IPITPOL) invites you to join them to audit the proceedings of the well-publicized Cinar Corporation v. Robinson case at the Supreme Court. Contact : jacqueline.rowniak [at] mail.mcgill.ca

4) IP scholars live & special seminar

With the adoption of the controversial C-11 bill, and the publication of no less than five judgements from the Supreme Court, Canadian copyright law had a busy 2012. IP week provides the opportunity to reflect on these new developments.
