World Intellectual Property Day – Innovate for a Green Future

*Please note that in light of the coronavirus pandemic, and the need to keep everyone safe and well, WIPO will not organise any physical events, and encourages the World IP Day community to move celebrations to virtual channels.

Each year, on 26 April, the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) celebrates 'World Intellectual Property Day' to discuss the role that intellectual property (IP) rights play in encouraging innovation and creativity.

World IP Day 2020 puts innovation – and the IP rights that support it – at the heart of efforts to create a green future.
