World IP Day 2021 to focus on SMEs
The theme of this year’s World Intellectual Property Day, which takes place on 26 April, is “IP and SMEs: Taking your ideas to market”.
WIPO states:
When nurtured and enriched with ingenuity, know-how and flair an idea becomes an IP asset that can drive business development, economic recovery and human progress.
Creative minds the world over – architects, artists, artisans, designers, engineers, entrepreneurs, researchers, scientists and many others – come up with new ideas every day. From the arts to artificial intelligence, fashion to farming, renewable energy to retail, television to tourism, and virtual reality to videogames, to name just a few.
It adds: “At a time when the imperative of economic recovery is high, World Intellectual Property Day 2021 shines a light on the critical role of SMEs in the economy and how they can use IP rights to build stronger, more competitive and resilient businesses.”
SMEs make up around 90% of the world’s businesses, employ around 50% of the global workforce and generate up to 40% of national income in many emerging economies.
MARQUES will organise an activity to mark World IP Day in April. Look out for more details soon.
