Final IFP Conference on Intellectual Property


The European Law Student's Association ELSA has the great pleasure to invite you to the final International Focus Programme Conference on Intellectual Property in Munich 2010.


With regard to the essential role Intellectual Property plays in our world today, numerous projects and events have been arranged and successfully carried out within the scope of the International Focus Programme (IFP) throughout the whole ELSA network. The IFP is a regular academic programme providing a specific legal topic which ELSA as a whole concentrates on for a period of three years.

As the duration of the present theme “Intellectual Property Law” expires in summer 2010, it will soon be time to take stock of what results have been achieved and what progress has been made.

For this purpose, ELSA Munich has the honour to organize the final IFP conference in Munich in order to summarize and share the last years’ outcome and moreover go beyond the previous issues that have already been focused on. Furthermore we are going to examine some new facets concerning this essential topic.


The final IFP conference is hosted by the Local Group ELSA Munich and proceeds in Munich, Germany on 27th April – 02nd May. It is catered for a prospective number of 90 participants consisting of mainly law students from all over Europe and will be completely held in English.


The patronage has been kindly assumed by Prof. Dr. Dres. h.c. Hans-Jürgen Papier, 8th President of the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany and professor at the Faculty of Law of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. It is officially supported by the European Patent Office and academically advised by Prof. Dr. Michael Lehmann, professor at the Faculty of Law of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich, External Associate of the Max Planck Institute for Intellectual Property, Competition and Tax Law and visiting professor at the Universities of Chicago, Harvard, Santa Clara, Ferrara, Palermo, and Luxembourg.
