Dresden – “Intellectual Property – a(n) (un)justified monopoly”
The Summer ELSA Law School Dresden on Intellectual Property Law was founded to analyse the question if intellectual property law is a justified or unjustified monopoly. It therefore offers participants a broad range of topics, exciting and renowned speakers from academia and practice, and the opportunity to put into practice what they have learned in a negotiation exercise that leads to a negotiation competition at the end of the week.
Further, the programme aims to give its participants an insight into the German culture and in particular into the culture of the State of Saxony by visiting the world-famous Semper Opera House and the Glaeserne Manufaktur of VW, by experiencing the delicious local cuisine and immersing themselves in the majestic old town of Dresden as well as by enjoying the vibrant nightlife of Dresden’s new town and finally by hiking through the beautiful Saxon Switzerland.
