Summary
The Law of Geographical Indications (GIs) is the branch of Intellectual Property Law that protects the names that are used to describe products that originate from a specific geographical area. Only 10–15 years ago, this was a narrow and obscure area, studied by a small number of scholars and practitioners.1 Today, instead, they have become a popular subject, discussed in more than a hundred publications every year.
