The Symposium is a key initiative under Pillar 1 of WIPO’s strategy on the role of IP in support of women and girls, the IP and Gender Action Plan (IPGAP). Held annually, the Symposium provides a dynamic forum for exchange, education, and partnership. Participants engage through impactful keynote presentations, expert panel discussions, focused thematic sessions, and interactive workshops. These gatherings have addressed priority areas such as policy development, data on women’s participation in IP, program implementation and evaluation, and effective communication. With each edition, the Symposium continues to grow as a key platform supporting offices in their mission to empower women in IP and innovation ecosystems.
