The events will be held on 24-26 September 2024. The purpose of the meeting is to share best practices, gain insights into recent communication campaigns and activities, and discuss further collaboration in the area of communication. Additionally, this year we will address perceptions or misconceptions of IP in the media. Please find more details regarding the meeting in the attached draft agenda. Please register here <https://forms.office.com/e/xJi2nmKmeL> As usual, the Annual Meeting is aimed at heads of communication from IP Offices. For this reason, the EUIPO will cover the expenses of one person per national office, including transport, accommodation and meals. Once your registration is complete, you will be contacted directly by our in-house travel agency to coordinate the travel arrangements. Additional participants are welcome but must bear their own travel and accommodation costs. If you would like to include an additional person, please follow the registration steps. If you prefer to attend the meeting online, please mark this option when registering for the event so we can share the connection link with you. We are also calling for volunteers to demonstrate examples of communication campaigns and initiatives from the past year. If you are interested, get in touch with us by replying to this email. The deadline for registration is 24 August! We would be grateful if you could register as soon as possible so we can proceed with travel arrangements. We look forward to meeting you in person or online!
