oriGIn represents today some 576 organisations of producers and other GI-related institutions from 40 countries. Through such a global network, GI groups and institutions exchange experience and “best-practices.” At our regular international events (conferences, exhibitions, round-tables, etc.) organisations of producers have the chance to meet other GI groups from all over the world facing similar challenges, as well as GI experts and potential business partners.
Thanks to its global nature, oriGIn has become a partner of several international actors working on GIs. The organisers of seminars, symposia and workshops on GIs team-up with oriGIn’s to have represented in such occasions the pragmatic and innovative point of view that our organisation always brings.
