PLC Cross-border IP in Business Transactions Handbook

The Practical Law Company (PLC) publishes its annual Cross-border IP in Business Transactions Handbook, which is a multi-jurisdictional guide that brings together:

• practical information on topical cross-border IP issues;
  
• country-specific Q&As on IP law and practice; and,
  
• and details of recommended IP lawyers and law firms in jurisdictions around the world.

Gowlings' Intellectual Property group and Russia and the CIS group contributed two chapters this year, both of which have now been made available for download:

• Intellectual Property in Business Transactions
• IP in Business Transactions: Russian Federation

User registration required, but the chapters are quite substantive.
