ATRIP is pleased to publish the latest edition of the Annual Congress Report. The 2026 edition features summaries of all presentations delivered at the 44th ATRIP Annual Congress, hosted by the University of São Paulo from 28 June to 1 July 2026, under the theme Intellectual Property and Politics: From Power Relations to Realpolitik. The summaries were prepared by a team of exceptional rapporteurs. The Report is now available in the Publications section of our website: https://atrip.org/publications-and-resources/#cong
The Report reflects the success of the ATRIP Annual Congress held at the University of São Paulo, its rich and stimulating scientific programme, and the strength and growth of the ATRIP community.
We hope that the Report will serve as a useful resource for the IP scholarly community and others engaged in intellectual property research. We encourage academics to share the Report widely and to draw upon it as a reference in their own research and scholarship.
ATRIP gratefully acknowledges all speakers for their valuable cooperation in preparing the Report. We extend our particular appreciation to the rapporteurs for their dedicated work and outstanding contributions to this publication: Gabriele Cifordelli, Inbar Cohen Ganot, Juan Correa, Vitor Ido, Leona King, Natália de Lima Figueiredo, Léo Pascault, Francesca Portante D’Alessandro, Luca Schirru, and Sintija Zalāne.
