February 2009

The Intellectual Property Group at Fasken Martineau introduces our annual synopsis of the year's significant IP-related decisions and noteworthy developments in IP law. Many of these recent developments reflect the ever-changing aspects of international commerce as well as the influence of technology, electronic media and the Internet on IP acquisition, maintenance, protection and enforcement. This review is a quick and easy reference for our clients, helping them keep abreast of many of the IP issues that affect them.

Our 2008 Intellectual Property Year in Review series has been so popular that it has received a monthly award as the most popular Canadian article posted on MONDAQ (an electronic resource database that archives legal, regulatory and financial information) for three years in a row.
