Second UPC User Forum

· About this forum

Building on the success of the inaugural UPC User Forum, the second edition brought together UPC judges and practitioners to discuss practical experiences following the first UPC decisions on the merits. The workshop focused on key procedural and substantive law issues while fostering an open exchange of best practices under the Chatham House Rules.

A year ago, the Munich IP Dispute Resolution Forum held the first UPC User Forum. The idea was to establish a new format for an exchange of experiences and best practices between the UPC judges and UPC users. In that tradition, the Munich IPDR Forum is now offering a workshop and get-together at the DPMA Forum on 12 September 2024, reunifying UPC judges and users allowing for an open exchange under “Chatham House Rules”.

Following the first UPC decisions on the merits, we will cover questions on material and procedural law. We are glad, that Dr. Matthias Zigann, Tobias Pichlmaier, Edger Brinkman, Margot Kokke, András Cupecz, Anders Hansson and Christoph Schober confirmed their participation. The workshop will start with a light lunch at noon, followed by two panel sessions of two hours each. The event will close with a reception around 6 pm.

On the work of the Forum

Arbitration and mediation belong at the heart of intellectual property practice — not at its margins. The Munich IPDR Forum exists to make that shift practical.
