WIPO is the global forum for intellectual property services, policy, information and cooperation. We are a self﹣funding agency of the United Nations, with 191 member states.
Our mission is to lead the development of a balanced and effective international intellectual property (IP) system that enables innovation and creativity for the benefit of all.
Our mandate, governing bodies and procedures are set out in the WIPO convention, which established WIPO in 1967.
We run workshops and seminars throughout the year. The presentations and meeting documents are made available for downloading wherever possible here.
