The 19th Global Brand Protection Innovation Programme (GBPIP 2026) will take place on 29–30 April 2026 in London, bringing together senior decision-makers, brand owners, legal leaders, IP strategists, and solution providers from across Europe and beyond.
Following the continued success of previous editions — which welcomed over 100 senior-level attendees including Directors, Heads of Brand Protection, IP Counsel, Risk Leaders, and Supply Chain Security experts — the 2026 programme is set to deliver its most forward-looking agenda to date.
GBPIP 2026 will focus on the evolving global landscape of brand protection, addressing the increasing complexity of counterfeiting, online piracy, AI misuse, cross-border enforcement challenges, and digital transformation risks.
Key Themes for 2026 Include:
- AI-driven Brand Protection & Fraud Detection Intelligence
- Smart Packaging & Digital Watermarking
- IoT Security & Connected Supply Chains
- Blockchain-led Transparency & Advanced IP Tracking
- Track & Trace & Serialization Strategies
- Anti-Counterfeit & Anti-Piracy Enforcement
- Legal & Regulatory Compliance
- Cybersecurity, Data Privacy & Governance
- Risk Management & Supply Chain Security
- Sustainability-led Brand Protection Strategies
The programme will feature expert-led sessions, strategic panel discussions, and high-level networking opportunities designed to foster collaboration between multinational brand owners and trusted solution providers.
With London serving as a key global hub for legal, financial, and commercial innovation, GBPIP 2026 aims to provide a practical, insight-driven platform where industry leaders can exchange strategies, share case studies, and explore emerging technologies shaping the future of brand protection.
Senior representatives from FMCGs, pharmaceuticals, automotive, technology, luxury goods, tobacco, financial institutions, retail, and cosmetics sectors are expected to attend.
As global threats continue to evolve across digital and physical marketplaces, the 19th Global Brand Protection Innovation Programme will provide a timely forum for organisations seeking resilient, technology-enabled protection strategies.
