Last week DLG Associates Bone Zanele Motau and Juwairiyyah Maher represented DLG at the 7th annual Adams & Adams Africa Network Meeting which ran from the 12th – 13th of September 2019. The Africa Network Meeting is the largest intellectual property conference of its kind in Southern Africa, and brings together intellectual property experts, attorneys and agents from across Africa to provide a platform for the exchange of knowledge, experiences and developments in the intellectual property field.
The conference hosted presentations from intellectual property experts on topics such as the protection of intellectual property rights in the digital space (a growing concern in todays modern digital world), the importance of intellectual property in the development and growth of the African continent, and the interplay between various intellectual property rights.
DLG’s Associates had an opportunity to learn this, and much more, first hand from intellectual property practitioners, experts and authorities from across Africa, and have shared their experience with the rest of DLG’s intellectual property team.
