  • Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer: “Common Challenges – Building Solutions” (Recs. 19, 25, 26 and 28)
  • Open Collaborative Projects and IP-Based Models (Rec. 36)

A dedicated web forum also exists for comments and feedback.

IP Asset Management Support for Universities

As one of the primary sources of generation of new technologies in developing and countries in transition, universities and R&D institutions increasingly play an important role in the process of technological innovation, technology transfer and commercialization of intellectual property (IP) arising from research activities, which ultimately contribute to national economic, social and cultural development.  A new initiative is being created to respond to the needs of this important WIPO constituency and will soon be available on this web site.
