The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), a specialized UN agency, is the global forum for intellectual property policy (IP), services, information, and cooperation.

WIPO GREEN partners with government institutions, intergovernmental organizations, academia, and companies - from small enterprises to Fortune 500 companies. Each partner brings unique insight, expertise, and networks. Through its partners, WIPO GREEN is able to increase its influence and reach new stakeholders, facilitate collaboration, and accelerate investment in green technology.
