Episode No. 2 of the Madrid System Podcast is in. Listen now!

We have just launched the second chapter of our new podcast series WIPOD – International Trademark System Talks. In this podcast, we cover perspectives, insights, as well as the historical background of WIPO’s Madrid System for the International Registration of Marks.

In this new episode of International Trademark System Talks, we discuss the Paris Conference on Industrial Property of 1880, all the way to the Madrid Agreement. Furthermore, we also address some of the first cases of stolen intellectual property of modern history.

You can stream the episode on Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts

The previous episode is also available. In this one, our host takes you through the known history of trademarks from Prehistory to the Industrial Revolution.

These 15-minute episodes bring you historical information as well as amusing stories and curiosities. For example, did you know that the pharmacy that registered the first French trademark 150 years ago is still operating? Curious to know more? Tune in to get the answer to those questions and other fun facts about the Madrid System.
