Cape Verde joins three International Intellectual Property Treaties

Cape Verde is implementing some major changes in its approach to Intellectual Property (IP) protection. One of the latest developments in this area was the country’s adherence to three WIPO Treaties, namely:

• Performances and Phonograms Treaty
• Copyright Treaty
• Marrakesh Treaty

By adopting these agreements this African archipelago comes closer to the international community concerning the principles of protection of IP rights.

The Treaties entered into force on May 22, 2019.
