The structure and content of the main provisions of the new draft law Industrial Property Law are analysed (on the example of Poland). The bill comprehensively regulates all objects of industrialproperty. The changes are mainly aimed at streamlining, speeding up and reducing the costs of obtaining protection of industrial property objects, especially inventions, utility models, industrial designs, trademarks and geographical indications.

As a result of the changes made, the attractiveness of the national system of industrial property protection will increase, and the established fees will be an incentive for applicantsto obtain legal protection for as many innovative solutions as possible.
