Bringing together the global IP community, the ECTA Annual Conference 2025 in Berlin sparked lively discussions on innovation, enforcement, and the future of intellectual property. Held in Berlin from 17 to 20 June, the event gathered professionals for in-depth discussions on EUIPO appeal rulings, Unified Patent Court case law, design and copyright protection, trade secrets, and IP in the creative industries. The sessions highlighted the evolving intersection of innovation, enforcement, and policy across Europe.
LexOrbis Partners Manisha Singh and Amaya Singh attended the conference, actively contributing to global conversations on harmonising IP strategies across jurisdictions. A memorable moment was the visit to the historic Charlottenburg Palace, a symbol of Prussian elegance built in the late 17th century and expanded through the 18th century, culminating in a delightful buffet dinner at the Orangery. One of the highlights was the Gala Dinner at Berlin’s iconic Tempelhof Airport, a historic venue with retro charm that set the stage for engaging conversations, vibrant networking, and warm reunions with friends and peers.
