Meeting between PMAC and Slovenian and Portuguese IP Offices

On 4 February 2026, a meeting took place in Ljubljana between Ana Bandeira, President of the Directive Council of the Portuguese Institute of Industrial Property, Karin Žvokelj, Director of the Slovenian Intellectual Property Offices and Aleš Zalar, PMAC Director together with their colleagues. 

Just before the meeting both IP offices signed their work plan for 2026, where one of the joint activities includes cooperation in the promotion of PMAC. As PMAC is headquartered in both Ljubljana and Lisbon, cooperation with the local offices in both jurisdictions is of particular importance. 

The meeting confirmed strengthened collaboration, including the organisation of an Arbitration Day in Lisbon on 25 November 2026.
