Part 2A this consolidated Act (inserted by the Intellectual Property (Dispute Resolution) Act 2019) enables the arbitration of IP disputes in Singapore. It broadly defines intellectual property rights, confirms that IP disputes including patent validity are arbitrable on an in personam basis, clarifies the treatment of third-party interests, and states that such disputes are not excluded on public-policy grounds. It also provides for the recognition, enforcement, and entry of court judgments based on IP-related arbitral awards.
