DLG’s IP team recently underwent training which was co–ordinated and led by Zanele Motau, who manages the IP division of the firm.
The training sought to keep the team abreast with important IP registration processes. It covered issues which ranged from the IP application process in Botswana, to the protection of IP rights through the African Regional Intellectual Property Organisation (ARIPO) and protection of IP rights through the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO).
The IP training provided the IP team with a better understanding of the processes involved and the importance of IP rights, and now the IP team is better placed to effectively serve both existing and potential clients.
