== History ==

== History ==

APRAM was born mostly from a conjunction of the wishes of designs (patent attorneys, lawyers and industry) and professional trademarks. It was formed to be an interlocutor with organizations such as the World Intellectual Property, INPI and Commission of European Communities. It also looked after establishing fraternal relations with associations such as the French associations AFPPI, CNCPI and foreign such as the ITMA, INTA, BMM and ECTA.  

APRAM was born out of the wishes of France's Intellectual Property professionals for an organization to address their concerns and act as an interlocutor with organizations such as the World Intellectual Property Organization ([[WIPO]]), [[INPI]], and [[EC]], as well as to establish fraternal relations with associations such as the French [[AFPPI]] and [[CNCPI]], and foreign ones such as the [[ITMA]], [[INTA]], [[BMM]], and [[ECTA]].
