Promotion and Education > Educational Corner > World Intellectual Property Day – 26 April World Intellectual Property DayIn 2000, World Intellectual Property Organization's (WIPO) member states designated April 26 – the day on which the WIPO Convention came into force in 1970 – as World Intellectual Property Day with the aim of increasing general understanding of IP. Since then, World IP Day has offered a unique opportunity each year to join with others around the globe to consider how IP contributes to the flourishing of music and the arts and to driving the technological innovation that helps shape our world. [2020] World Intellectual Property Day – April 26, 2020“Innovate for a Green Future” Every April 26, we celebrate World Intellectual Property Day to learn about 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. Why? Because the choices we make today will shape our tomorrow. The earth is our home. We need to care for it. For details, please visit WIPO’s webpage of World IP Day (http://www.wipo.int/ip-outreach/en/ipday/).
In support of the World IP Day, the Intellectual Property Department published relevant articles in various newspapers, magazines and platforms in April to introduce and promote the respect for IP rights.
