Summary
Mexico´s Industrial Property Law.
We are pleased to invite you to a three-part webinar series on recent reforms to Mexico´s Industrial Property Law.

April 21 — Patents & Innovation
April 22 — Trademarks & Enforcement
April 23 — Strategic Implications
All sessions will take place at 9:00 AM (Central Time) and will be presented in English.
The program is designed to address how these developments are being applied in practice and what they require from companies operating in or entering the Mexican market.

Kind regards,
