World Intellectual Property Organization

The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is a United Nations agency that promotes the protection of intellectual property (IP) worldwide. Intellectual property refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols or designs used in commerce. WIPO helps countries set international standards for IP laws, provides resources for creators and inventors, and resolves disputes related to IP. Its goal is to encourage innovation and creativity, ensuring that creators can earn recognition and financial benefits from their work while also fostering economic growth globally.
