As a European based and rooted association, ECTA is deeply concerned that war is now again on the European continent. Working with IP rights as tools for innovative and peaceful development of societies, ECTA believes strongly in dialogue and democracy and sees mutual commerce and peaceful cooperation as cornerstones to the benefit of all people.

ECTA offers its solidarity to the population in Ukraine and other war zones and support to its members in affected countries.

ECTA hopes for a de-escalation of the present conflict and an earnest search for a peaceful solution via dialogue and diplomacy.
