WIPO Development Ddevelopment Agenda Meeting - documents

Following from last post, here is the (skeletal) agenda for the meeting, together with submitted documents. These are from Colombia, US, Chile, and Argentina (and others).

Although the documents do indeed reflect a broad range of interests and perspectives, there are common themes - delivery of knowledge and technology transfer, encouragement of development and competition, involving other international organisations and civil society in the debate.

As ever, the key will be the detail: precisely what mix is chosen, and what interests drive this. The contributions from Chile and Argentina both call in some detail for new perspectives and studies on how best to proceed in the future of IP. What impact will this have?
