history

In 1952 the Austrian Leaflets for Commercial Legal Protection and Copyright appeared for the first time as a joint bulletin of the Permanent Assembly of Delegates for Commercial Legal Protection, the Austrian regional groups of the International Association for Commercial Legal Protection ("AIPPI") and the International League against Unfair Competition ("LIGA") as well as the Austrian Association of the Branded Goods Industry. The resulting cooperation between the supporting organizations and their members was to be concentrated and intensified by founding a separate association in which all three organizations were members.

The founding meeting took place on March 6, 1958. The President of the Vienna Bar Association , Emerich Hunna, was then appointed as the first President . Immediately after its foundation, the association took over the publishing of the Austrian papers .
