Call for Abstracts: EIPTN 16th Worldwide Annual Conference Brussels (UCLouvain), 04–05 October 2024!
About EIPTN
EIPTN is multi-disciplinary in focus and aims to bring together intellectual property law (IP) teachers from across Europe to exchange ideas on best practices in IP teaching and learning activities.
In particular, EIPTN aims to raise awareness and disseminate information relating to:
- innovation in the teaching of IP
- problem-based teaching and learning
- multi-disciplinary teaching and learning
- promotion of IP teaching through IP professionals (i.e. patent attorneys, trade mark attorneys and technology transfer offices staff)
The European Patent Academy of the European Patent Office (EPO) and the Academy of the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) support the EIPTN Annual Conference since 2007.
Our 2024 Annual Conference will be hosted (face-to-face format) at the premises in Brussels of UCLouvain (Saint-Louis Brussels city center campus), close to major transport hubs.
Focus of our Call for Abstracts
Since the start of the COVID19 pandemic in 2020, the IP Teaching Agenda was profoundly re-shaped by the emergence of online/distant/remote teaching, that led soon to new, thrilling, sharing opportunities and issues.
This evolution raises considerable interest and questions in the IP teaching community. Hence, this year our Call for Abstracts focuses on recent substantive publications, or teaching programs and pedagogic methods introduced by IP academics on:
- a- substantive IP issues in general on Inspiration and Sharing in Intellectual Property that effectively contribute to enhancing quality and/or new channels in IP Teaching;
- b- substantive IP issues that relate to COIL Programs and effectively contribute to enhancing quality and/or new channels in IP Teaching
- c- substantive IP issues that consider Artificial Intelligence, and Inspiration in Intellectual Property and effectively contribute to enhancing quality and/or new channels in IP Teaching
- d- substantive IP issues that consider Inspiration and Ethics in Sharing and Intellectual Property and effectively contribute to enhancing quality and/or new channels in IP Teaching
- e- substantive IP issues that consider Sharing, Copying and Plagiarism and effectively contribute to enhancing quality and/or new channels in IP Teaching
