Online, February 9, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property (AIPPI) recently announced its partnership with Congress Canada for its biennial conference, to be held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre from September 14-18, 2014. As a leading Destination Management Company (DMC) and Professional Conference Organizer (PCO), Congress Canada was an ideal choice for AIPPI's upcoming Toronto event.

"Selecting the best PCO partner is a key ingredient to ensure the success of our international conference," said Philip Mendes da Costa, Chair of the Organizing Committee for the AIPPI 2014 Congress. "Congress Canada's experience, creativity and win-win attitude has given us the confidence we need to showcase Toronto and Canada to our colleagues from around the world."

The World Intellectual Property Congress is expected to bring together more than 2,000 patent lawyers, patent owners and other users of the institutions of industrial property. AIPPI is the world's leading non-government organization for research and policy formulation of law relating to the protection of intellectual property (i.e., patents, trademarks, copyright, etc.) Renowned for uniting practitioners, academics and owners of intellectual property, the non-profit international organization makes a point of holding its conferences in a different city each year. In recent years, the congress has been held in Seoul, Milan, Cancun, Geneva, Melbourne, Paris and Boston.

The five-day intellectual property conference in Toronto will be supplemented with social events, exhibitions, and Congress Canada's specialty; leisure tour programs. In addition to handling the planning, administration and management of the event, Congress Canada will act as an ambassador to showcase the natural beauty and metropolitan highlights of the Toronto and Niagara Falls region. With past success in planning and managing flawless international conferences, Congress Canada will be drawing on its experience and skilled staff to ensure the 44th World Intellectual Property Congress is an exceptional and productive event.
