The Philippines to cooperate with South Korea to promote IP-based professions
To satisfy the growing need for intellectual property (IP) professionals servicing the Philippines’ innovation, creativity, and commercial markets, the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) is now examining the deal with the Korean Invention Promotion Association (KIPA).
Korea Invention Promotion Association
Korea Invention Promotion Association (KIPA) was established in 1994 to promote intellectual property (IP) and expand patent management support. KIPA provides a ONE-STOP service that offers assistance from the early stages of inventions to commercialization. Moreover, KIPA trains human resources to handle intellectual property issues in the age of globalization.
Korea Invention Promotion Association mission is promote international competitiveness and economic development through technology innovation in the industrial field by systematic and efficient implementation of invention promotion projects.
The KIPA’s vision is to lead a knowledge-based society, providing service for customer satisfaction, maximizing the value of Intellectual Property, training creative persons of future talent, realizing a NEW invention culture, developing a company culture focused on achievements.
The Philippines to cooperate with South Korea
During a knowledge-sharing programme (KSP) between the Philippines and South Korea, the suggestion on further collaboration with the purpose of promote IP-based professions was brought up. IPOPHL is better prepared to advance IP professionals thanks to the detailed study completed by the KIPA.
This is especially benefits for personnels already in IP professions as they are opened up to more opportunities. For currently non-participants in IP, this brings forth more chances for them to join the IP world as this is considered one of the highest paid professions in the world, this is counted among the law industry which has been regarded to be on the same field with doctors on income gained.
KIPA’s ideas include the establishment of a national framework for the development of IP human resources as well as a certification program for certain IP professions.
Expert opinions
IPOPHL Director General Rowel S. Barba applauded the KSP’s completion, calling it an appropriate development given that the number of IP filings domestically are beginning to climb again, indicating a greater need for IP protection.
“As the demand for new IP protection grows, so does the demand for IP specialists who are competent and trained enough to secure these new intangible assets.” According to Barba, these suggestions embrace the outcomes of this partnership as a chance to better meet the requirements of the rising IP market.
The research also supplied IPOPHL with further knowledge about how to construct the implementing rules and regulations (IRR), which are now being finalized by the IP Academy and have the potential to increase the professionalisation of IPOPHL-recognized patent and trademark agents.
