"Since December 1999, the Center has administered over 30,000 proceedings, of which over 15,000 under the WIPO-initiated Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) adopted by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.The UDRP provides holders of trademark rights with an administrative mechanism for the efficient resolution of disputes arising out of the bad-faith registration and use by third parties of Internet domain names corresponding to those trademark rights."
The program will be from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the first day and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the second day.
Even though the participation will be limited to only 50 persons,there will be given many useful informations on the Center’s domain name dispute resolution services,the legal framework of the UDRP and many others.
