IPAN 2020 Activities
With the current COVID-19 restrictions, the IPAN board has needed to curtail the planned programme for 2020, rescheduling most events with a focus on Zoom internet webinar delivery. In April/May 2021 we plan a major event “Export opportunities for IP rich companies” in collaboration with the Institute of Directors, the IPO, industry and the IP professions as part of IPAN’s World IP Day celebrations
