On September 21, 2026, the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore (IPOS) released 'IPOS update on IP/IT dispute resolution in Singapore: August-September 2026,' the latest edition of its regular bulletin on intellectual property and technology dispute resolution. The release is listed on Singapore Law Watch, the legal information portal of the Singapore Academy of Law, which republishes IPOS decisions and updates for the profession.
According to its description, the update covers recent decisions of the Singapore courts and of IPOS, together with featured articles, events and other developments relating to IP/IT dispute resolution in Singapore during August and September 2026. The series is produced by IPOS's Hearings and Mediation Department (HMD), which sends out regular updates on the latest IP/IT dispute resolution developments in Singapore; earlier 2026 editions covered each month from January through June, followed by a July edition and the combined August-September edition.
The bulletin is one of the main channels through which IPOS communicates registry-side procedural developments — including opposition, revocation, invalidation and other hearings practice, as well as mediation initiatives — to practitioners and rights holders. Full editions are archived as PDFs on the HMD circulars and news page at ipos.gov.sg, and practitioners can subscribe to the mailing list (ipos_hmd@ipos.gov.sg) to receive future editions directly. The August-September edition arrives amid a busy year for Singapore's IP framework, including revised IPOS fee schedules and ongoing reviews of its dispute resolution offerings.
