It was great to discuss intellectual property and the sustainable development goals on a panel with Professors Jessica Lai, Susy Frankel and Christian Schott at the Victoria University of Wellington. It was a good opportunity to explore the many fine contributions contained in the collection, The Elgar Companion to Intellectual Property and the Sustainable Development Goals, which I edited along with Bita Amani and Caroline B Ncube for Edward Elgar Publishing. https://lnkd.in/g--Zpqz4 It was also a useful platform to consider New Zealand's progress towards the realisation of the sustainable development goals. #SDGs #IP #copyright #trademark #patent #sustainability #nzlaw #nzpol
