On 25 October 2022, the Africa IP SME Helpdesk is organizing a webinar titled “Doing business in Ghana: IP tips for market access”.
Ghana’s dynamic economy is proving an attractive option for foreign businesses and investors. Recently, IP laws have been put in place that are aligned with international best practices.
The presentation will provide information on the IP rights legal framework, and the relevant institutions for acquiring and enforcing IP rights, particularly, patents, trade marks, industrial designs and copyright.
It will also tackle the available enforcement measures and the practical challenges businesses may face when enforcing their IP rights. The discussion will include:
