This conference, organized around the theme “Stimulating Innovation, Accelerating Technology Transfer and Diffusion, Enabling Global Solutions,” is organized by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). It will address how the principal factors stimulating innovation can be integrated into coherent strategies that span across reasearch and development, national production capabilities, access to markets, effective regulations, and sound intellectual property management. Options will be explored that accelerate technology transfer and diffusion, and thus affect people's lives around the world.
