The day is observed to learn about the role that intellectual property (IP) rights play in encouraging innovation and creativity.
The day recognizes the huge potential of young people to find new and better solutions that support the transition to a sustainable future.
This year, World Intellectual Property Day 2022’s theme focuses on IP and Youth innovating for a Better Future.
The event was established by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in 2000 to “raise awareness of how patents, copyright, trademarks and designs impact on daily life.”
