The senior-year students of the Faculty of Law of the Georgian Technical University (GTU) will get acquainted with the importance of the intellectual property and the corresponding legislation of the field. As of today the students will attend the course “On Intellectual Property” at Sakpatenti. The five-day course is organized by Sakpatenti Training Centre, and it is led by WIPO Academy Sakpatenti tutors. The course will last for one month.

Future lawyers at the training will receive comprehensive information from highly qualified Sakpatenti trainers which will enable them to assess the importance of protection of IP subject-matters and to analyze the current legislation.

The course is implemented within cooperation of the Georgian Technical University and Sakpatenti. Cooperation with educational institutions and offering tailored trainings to address the needs of various target groups facilitates raising interest in the intellectual property field in a wide audience and raising awareness in this direction.
