The agreement was signed by Soso Giorgadze, Chairman of Sakpatenti, and Irakli Lekvinadze, Chairman of the GCCA, with the goal of enhancing collaboration in intellectual property policies, consumer protection, and more.

The Memorandum outlines plans for experience sharing, joint consultations, and collaborative discussions on key topics of mutual interest.
