Launch of new intellectual property enforcement tool
Intellectual property | Brussels, 30 June 2016
The European Commission has created an anti-counterfeiting tool to bring together in one database all data relating to cases of intellectual property infringement affecting EU companies in countries outside the EU.
It is intended to serve as a single secure information point for both EU businesses and authorities, where companies can share intellectual property infringements testimonies in countries outside the EU and share information on the respective follow-up of these cases by local authorities.
Free and multilingual, this web based application provides EU businesses with intelligence in order to make informed decisions about their business strategies in third countries and mitigate the risk of future infringements. The information stored in the application should also help EU policy makers to better shape their dialogue with countries outside of the EU.
The ACRIS tool operates following rigorous security parameters, confidentiality and restricted access, and guarantees a trusted use of the information that is filled-in by users
