    The Australian Group invites members to discuss the Group's draft responses to AIPPI's 2024 Study Questions at an Australian Group Questions Forum to be held online on Thursday, 18 April 2024 from 5pm to 7pm AEST.

    As in previous years, the Group intends to contribute responses to all four Study Questions for consideration in developing draft resolutions to be debated at AIPPI's Hangzhou Congress in October 2024. The 2024 study questions are as follows:

    • Q289 - Patents - Disclosure of prior art
    • Q290 - Trade marks - Composite trade marks
    • Q291 - Copyright - Parody
    • Q292 - General - Unjustified allegations

    Guidelines for each Study Question will be circulated before the Questions Forum, as will draft responses to the Study Questions.

    If you are interested any of these topics, this is a great opportunity to contribute to formulating the Australian Group's position ahead of this year's Congress.
