#TTIP #Stakeholders
On Wednesday 24th February, during the 12th round of the Transatlantic Trade & Investment partnership (TTIP) negotiations, the European Commission organizes a stakeholders event.
This represents an opportunity for GI Groups to meet the TTIP negotiators, deliver a 5-minute presentation on their expectations for GIs in the TTIP and support the GIs in the context of such complex negotiation.
