In my judgment, WIPO needs far more input from the smaller businesses of
the world and the liittle people. Most of these businesses and people
cannot take the time and spend the money to follow what you are doing,
although they should.

I feel WIPO has an obligation to genuinely represent these small
businesses by seeking out members and experts that you listen to
carefully, who know the concerns of the little guys that fuel the world
economy. You are getting far too much input from the big companies and
trade organizations of the world, who by definition do NOT represent the
small businesses that create the employment our world needs.
Furthermore, you are not getting correct information on the nature of
the issues you are trying to resolve, which leads you to "solve"
problems that do not exist.

Sincerely,
