On 12 December 2024 from 1:30 pm (UK Time), in the Moot Court Room of City Law School (London-hybrid), ECTA member Dr Andrea Zappalaglio (Lecturer in IP Law, University of Sheffield, and incoming Associate Professor in IP Law, University of Leeds) and Dr Enrico Bonadio (Reader in Law, City University of London) will present their forthcoming volume The Future of Geographical Indications: European and Global Perspectives (Edward Elgar, February 2025)

The book provides original and contemporary perspectives on the evolution and current state of GIs at European and global levels, focusing in particular on the challenges that this area of IP Law is likely to face in the foreseeable future.

After the book launch there will be a roundtable discussion with experts from legal practice, industry, producers’ associations, as well as UK and EU institutions, who will provide their insight on the questions: ‘what advancements have been made by the Law of GIs in the EU and globally? What challenges must be tackled today and, likely, in the future?’.
