The '''AIPMAS (Arab Intellectual Property, Mediation and Arbitrations Society)''' is an organization supported by the Arab Society responsible in protecting Intellectual Property (IP) and help resolve IP related conflicts through international arbitrators who are in charge in implementing international rules. | |||
==History== | |||
The establishment of AIPMAS was a result of the meeting held in Munich Germany of February 23, 1987 wherein many professionals voiced out their concerns regarding the practices and protection of trademarks, patents and industrial property. | |||
During the meeting in Munich 140 individuals supported the creation of AIPMAS which was originally called as the “Arab Society for the Protection of Industrial Property.” During the meeting, 40 representatives were elected Board of Directors of the Society. <ref>[http://www.aipmas.org/site_content.aspx?page_key=history&lang=en History of Society]</ref> | |||
Its first objective is to create national societies to create awareness regarding the importance of industrial property within the Arab countries in accordance with the laws implemented by each country. The Society also aimed to develop laws and regulations in both local and international levels to help solve the possible problems that will come up related to industrial property protection. | |||
Various professionals including a group of specialists concerned about the intellectual property practices supported the objective. On May 31, 1987, the Arab Society for the protection of Industrial property was established as public profit Jordanian Society based on the provisions described in the 1966 Social Societies and Commissions No. 33 and on the 1971 Modified Law No.9. | |||

The Society’s objective is not only centered on intellectual property protection but also the resolution of conflicts, which the Society decided to focus on.
