Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property

The Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IPI) is Switzerland’s official government agency responsible for managing and protecting intellectual property rights, such as patents, trademarks, and designs. It ensures innovators and creators can safeguard their inventions, brands, and creative works, promoting innovation and economic growth. The IPI registers and maintains these rights, provides legal oversight, and offers guidance to businesses and individuals on intellectual property matters. It also supports Switzerland’s compliance with international IP agreements and contributes to fostering a fair environment for innovation and creativity.
