The Desmond Tutu Peace Trust (DTPT) has bestowed a great honor on Stellenbosch University by engaging the services of the Chair of Intellectual Property (CIP) at the Faculty of Law.
The Chair has accepted the position of chief Intellectual Property Law advisor to the Trust and will in future be available to assist in all aspects of the Trust’s intellectual property rights management.
The first mandate to the CIP is to advise the Trust during current negotiations with Google Inc and others.
The CIP in its executive capacity (the IP Unit – Owen, Cobus and Sadulla) will provide its expertise on a pro bono basis to the Trust, and will meet with the CEO and representatives of the Trust during this week.
