WIPO was requested to organize in cooperation with State Intellectual Property Service of Ukraine (SIPS) a series of roving national seminars on the PCT and the Madrid system, in several cities of Ukraine.
The aim of the seminars was to enhance awareness of potential users of the PCT and the Madrid system in Ukraine of the respective administrative procedures and advantages thereof with a view to increase the number of filings from Ukraine. WIPO had already organized several separate promotion events on the PCT and the Madrid system, and the Ukrainian side proposed to combine both activities in order to broaden synergetic effect intended for the IP user community in Ukraine.
The seminars also promoted the activities of WIPO and SIPS.
