UCLInstitute of Brand and Innovation Law
The Institute of Brand and Innovation Law at UCL Laws provides
a unique forum for academics, the judiciary, policy-makers, the
professions and users of the IP system to come together and
exchange ideas on cutting-edge IP issues.
The current Director, Professor Sir Robin Jacob, has continued
the legacy and the outstanding vision of IBIL’s founder, Sir Hugh
Laddie, and is fostering the strength of UCL in London as a centre
for intellectual property practice and scholarship. He has helped
to shape a multi-disciplinary research programme on intellectual
property, within UCL and more broadly worldwide, and leads IBIL’s
young, dynamic IP team.
IBIL provides top quality teaching at undergraduate, post-graduate
and PhD levels for tomorrow’s practitioners and IP thinkers. As well
as giving students a thorough grounding in general intellectual
property, our specialist Masters courses provide in-depth
knowledge of aspects of IP which are generally not taught in the
About the
UK.
IBIL runs a serious program of events at the highest level, designed
with the interests of sponsors in mind. Events include seminars,
public lectures, conferences and workshops on all aspects of IP
and we will actively seek input and ideas from our sponsors during
the year.
IBIL’s reputation as the leading European centre for IP allows
it to attract distinguished speakers from a diverse range of
backgrounds. This provides the ideal forum for key issues to
be debated as expert opinion can be heard from contrasting
perspectives.Past speakers have included:
