WTO TRIPS Agreement- Current state of Pharmaceutical IndustryWto Trips Agreement • March 2nd, 2017
Contract Type FiledMarch 2nd, 2017The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) requires adoption of a minimum patent standard for all countries. It is often argued by developing countries that the introduction of a uniform (and minimum) patent standard for all countries irrespective of their level of development would prevent people from access to medicines. Moreover, in developing countries, the drug expenses are being paid out of pockets by the patients unlike developed countries where insurance companies bear the burden. In this regard an empirical study was conducted on pharmaceutical stakeholders consisting of leading pharmaceutical companies, drug administration of Bangladesh (the regulatory authority), leading experts on industrial pharmacy, academics and leaders of Bangladesh Association of Pharmaceutical Industries. The study finds that price of medicines will go up and access to health will be denied once Bangladesh enters the patent regime. The perceived impact on the indust

The WTO TRIPS Agreement, the Right to Health and Access to Medicines in AfricaWto Trips Agreement • January 23rd, 2012
Contract Type FiledJanuary 23rd, 2012There is no gainsaying the fact that access to affordable medicine is an issue that continues to elicit a considerable degree of concern all over the world albeit the effects of the problem are evidently more devastating in the developing countries. The international patent regime under the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement) is seen as a major part of the global access to medicine problem.

THE WTO-TRIPS AGREEMENT AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ENFORCEMENT IN NIGERIA*Wto-Trips Agreement • April 6th, 2020
Contract Type FiledApril 6th, 2020Nigeria is regarded as one of the “piracy capitals” of the world due to the massive volume of piracy and counterfeiting in the pharmaceutical, ICT, manufacturing, entertainment and other industries. The informal structure of the economy, the massive unemployment which promotes criminality, the general lack of awareness and unwillingness of most IP owners to enforce their rights when infringed has fomented an IP infringement culture. There is a steep divide between the provisions of various IPR protection instruments which substantially comply with the WTO- TRIPS Agreement and the actual enforcement of these rights. The laws require only minimal upgrade but the intelligence, assets and systems for IPR enforcement must be radically improved if the country is to maximize the awesome potential of creative Nigerians. This paper examines the emergence of the WTO and the provisions of the TRIPS Agreement on the international enforcements of IPR’s, the legal and institutional framework in Nige
