March 26, 2025

Intellectual property (IP) can be a powerful catalyst for inclusive and sustainable development. To this end, the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) will host a Technical Assistance and Capacity Building Webinar Series in 2025, following a successful series in 2024.

The 2025 series kicks off with two webinars that will offer new insights and tools for delivering more impactful technical assistance and capacity-building initiatives around the world.

Last year, the series attracted around 900 participants from 116 countries. This diverse audience reflects WIPO’s continued efforts to foster inclusive dialogue and collaboration across national, regional, and international contexts.

The upcoming webinars will further deepen the conversation by focusing on how to maximize and measure impact in technical assistance programs:
