Cape Verde has also acceded to the African Regional Intellectual Property Organisation (ARIPO) and its protocols, thereby reinforcing its commitment to international best practice.<\/p>\n<p>According to the minister, the aim is to modernise and strengthen the protection of intangible assets \u2013 such as patents, trade marks, designs, trade secrets and traditional cultural expressions \u2013 by providing the country with a robust legal framework that promotes innovation, competitiveness and sustainable economic development.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal also includes measures to simplify and digitise procedures, strengthen enforcement and combat unfair competition, thereby facilitating access to the industrial property system for economic operators and promoting a more attractive business environment.<\/p>\n<p>This legislative initiative forms part of the Government\u2019s strategy to transform Cape Verde into an investment and export hub, by boosting the digital economy, knowledge and the country\u2019s competitive position in the global market.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.governo.cv\/parlamento-aprova-autorizacao-legislativa-para-novo-codigo-da-propriedade-industrial\/\" target=\"_blank\">Parliament approves legislative authorisation for the new Industrial Property Code<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.governo.cv\/\" target=\"_blank\">Government of Cape Verde<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Assembleia Nacional aprovou esta sexta-feira, 27 de junho, a proposta de autoriza\u00e7\u00e3o legislativa que permite ao Governo aprovar um novo C\u00f3digo da Propriedade Industrial, apresentada pelo Ministro da Ind\u00fastria, Com\u00e9rcio e Energia, Eng.\u00ba Alexandre Dias Monteiro.
