Zimbabwe: African Resilience Shines Through

Brenda Matanga  sent Afro-IP a message today to re-assure the IP community and investors that Zimbabwe remains open for business.
 
Its business as usual” she exclaimed as she updated on the Zimbabwe Institute of Patent & Trade Mark Agents' talk this afternoon on the procedure for trade mark oppositions at ARIPO. She described the attendance as being a "full house of IP practitioners" including the Deputy Chief Registrar who made a presentation.
 
"We are good. ... Zimbabweans just calmly getting along as if nothing is happening. Just playing it by the ear too… but we are working."
 
Earlier today, @DarrenTOlivier tweeted "I am reliably told by the effervescent receptionist at @ARIPO that it's business as usual at their offices and at Zimbabwe Intellectual Property Office (ZIPO) based in Harare. Basically, if you want to invest in Zim, they will help you!"
