The 2025 EPIP organising committee at Antwerp University invites researchers at all stages of their careers, practitioners, and representatives of policymakers and stakeholders interested in the economic, legal, philosophical, and political aspects of intellectual property (IP) to submit papers for the 20^th EPIP Annual Conference, to be held in Antwerp, Belgium, from 10 to 12 September 2025.

The conference will explore the historical perspectives, present realities, and future trajectories of IP, innovation, and technology, uniting a diverse group of experts. We welcome individuals from various disciplines, including the fields of economics, law, management science, anthropology, history, and political science, as well as stakeholders and policymakers for theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented presentations and discussions on the intersection of IP, innovation, and technology.

Participants will have an opportunity to engage in discussions and presentations that touch on a wide range of issues, articulated around (1) the overarching theme of the conference, and (2) other leading themes and topics. Submissions from all disciplines on all IP-related topics are welcome until 30 April 2025 on the 2025 EPIP platform.
