As the dynamic economies of Southeast Asia continue to build manufacturing capacity in industries ranging from pharmaceuticals to consumer electronics, patent infringement has emerged as a growing problem in the region. Wongrat Ratanaprayul, the director of Tilleke & Gibbins’ Jakarta office, and Hanoi-based partner Loc Xuan Le have been invited by the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys (CIPA) to share their insight on patent protection in Southeast Asia with U.K.-based attorneys via webinar.

The hour-long webinar, open to registered CIPA members, will be held on March 12. Wongrat and Loc will outline the available enforcement routes (civil, criminal, and/or administrative) and border control procedures for protecting patents in Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam, and share best practices gained from years in the field.
