The Middle East regional office:
Due to the expansion of the WIIPA, in order to increase unity and focus on new members, it was necessary to establish regional offices.
WIIPA is most active in East Asia, and the Middle East, as a developing region, needs more attention. In this regard, a regional office has been established in Turkey.
In order for regional offices to be able to continue to operate in the best possible way, they must shift their focus away from invention & innovation exhibition and must focus as much as possible on the process of training and providing services to member countries. Also, monitor the activities of member countries, recruit members, and regional policy according to all effective factors.
Mission:
- Provide services such as academic counseling for its members and universities (local and international) on invention-related matters, effective communication, patents, and its related field of intellectual property.
- Engage members as well as delegates from foreign universities in seminars, practical training opportunities (both local and abroad) to increase the level of skill and competency of the Association.
- Promote mutual visits and reciprocity among member organizations, inventors, and manufacturers to strengthen not only multilateral relations but also cultural ties between member countries.
- Raise the level of invention and innovation to international standards and implement stringent measures to protect the inventors’ creation in the field of intellectual property.
- Establish educational research, development centers, international forums lectures, conference, etc.
Goal:
WIIPA upholds the spirit of globalization and extends its vision across the globe. With technology, using a network interface allows a fluid communication pattern for a more innovative exchange of ideas and information among stakeholders. In addition to periodically holding activities, such as international exhibitions and conferences, WIIPA will develop an invention seed teacher training program.
Through this program, we are confident that young and talented inventors will take root from the expertise of cross-disciplinary teachers, nurture and explore the passion in their respective skills.
