The next WIPO Conversation, entitled “Frontier technologies and IP administration – learning from each other”, will take place on 5 and 6 April 2022.
As the world becomes more interconnected, the speed of innovation and creation is accelerating and business models are changing. IP portfolios are becoming more complex reflecting these trends, and the number of IP filings is increasing but also subject to greater volatility.
Frontier technologies, such as AI, big data analytics and blockchain can be used to address the growing challenges facing IP Offices (IPOs) in order to make IP efficient and accessible for everyone, everywhere.
