WIPO Mock Mediation: Efficient Dispute Resolution and Best Practices
In the course of business relations, disputes will arise. In some of these cases, the subject of the dispute is a core asset of a business, and the dispute in question can sterilize the value of that asset. That is a big problem. As an ever more popular and proven procedure, Mediation should be considered as part of any business’ dispute resolution policy, including from the creation through commercialization of IP. This session will take you into the heat of a mediation of a dispute involving the intersection of university creativity, the publishing industry, Hollywood, and options. The program also will cover the key concepts of Mediation and a list of 10 take-away best practices.
