4月26日は世界知的所有権の日です

2015/04/15

知的財産の普及啓発活動を推進するため、世界知的所有権機関(WIPO)の加盟国は2000年に4月26日を「世界知的所有権の日」に指定しました。4月26日という日付は1970年4月26日に「 世界知的所有権機関を設立する条約」(WIPO設立条約)の施行によりWIPOが設立されたことに由来します。

毎年、この「世界知的所有権の日」を祝うために、世界各地で様々なイベントが催されます。WIPOでも毎年異なるテーマを設定して様々な活動を行っています。今年のテーマは音楽となっており、 専用のウェブサイト(英語)も立ち上げております。また、WIPO日本事務所では「世界知的所有権の日」に寄せた 記事も公表しておりますので、ぜひご覧ください。
