The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the global forum for intellectual property (IP) services, policy, information and cooperation, is looking for qualified professionals wishing to contribute to its distinctive mission of making IP work for everyone.

As the global forum for intellectual property services, policy, cooperation and information, WIPO aims to lead the development of a balanced and effective international intellectual property system that enables innovation and creativity for the benefit of all.

Intellectual property has gained enormously in importance in recent decades for the economies of nations, regions and the world as a whole. At the same time, information technology has moved at heart of these economies, as most modern day industrial production and commercial transactions are now highly dependent on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure and platforms.

ICT also lies at the core of WIPO's execution of its mandate and conditions various dimensions of its work. It has evolved into the primary means for WIPO to deliver its services, and it permits those services to distinguish themselves from other avenues for seeking intellectual property protection at the global level.
