On September 2021 the Consulate of the Sea gathered representatives of several Courts, company directives, academics, and administrative authorities to convey the new initiatives lined up for this coming years. A key initiative discussed was the importance of Mediation as an alternative dispute resolution mechanism.
26/07/2021.- The Consolat de Mar has signed a collaboration agreement with Reus Chamber of Commerce and the Bar Association of Reus in order to promote and support business mediation and alternative dispute mechanisms amongst companies and entrepreneurships.
The agreement shall promote mediation amongst companies. It tends to implement the ADRs systems as effective mechanisms for companies’ dispute resolution. The Consolat de Mar, the Osona Chamber of Commerce and the Vic Bar Association bring their support to these systems and shall put in place coordinated mechanisms to assist companies and business entrepreneurs in the mechanics of mediation and ADRs. The agreement was signed at the Osona Chamber of Commerce headquarters on June 7th, 2021.
For the first time, this landmark agreement joins the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, and its Consolat de Mar, with the European agency, EUIPO, responsible for ensuring business innovation through the protection of trademarks, designs and models, which are key competitive advantage assets for companies.
Through this agreement, the Chamber, through its ADR center headed by the Consolat de Mar, undertakes to promote the use of ADRs through any informative means, trainings and cooperation activities, confident that the rights and benefits inherent to intellectual property can increase their value through consensual resolution mechanisms for parties in conflict.
With the signature of this agreement, the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce enhances its support to business’ R & D & I investments, mostly when upon the current constant changing environment, consensual and peaceful ways of resolving conflicts, seem to be more necessary than ever
The agreement joint declaration of intent has been signed between the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce and the European Union Intellectual Property Office, EUIPO, in particular with the ADR service of the Boards of Appeal.
