This course was established to help 12 public officials from the ministries of industry of developing countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Azerbaijan, Myanmar, the Philippines, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Iran learn how to utilize and protect intellectual property rights in Korea and apply these strategies in their home countries.


The purpose is to strengthen the intellectual property capabilities of public officials from developing countries and, based on this, enable the participating officials to utilize intellectual property when promoting industrial policies in their respective countries, thereby playing a role in bridging the industrial development gap and intellectual property gap between advanced and developing countries.



Kim Tae-eung, Director of the International Intellectual Property Training Institute, said, "KIPO will continue to expand the development and operation of educational programs in cooperation with WIPO for the development of developing countries and sustainable economic growth."
