The WIPO Young Experts Program (YEP) aims to upskill and expand the capabilities of the next generation of global Intellectual Property (IP) leaders to help build innovation ecosystems around the world.
Through this 2-year competitive program, 10 young and talented professionals will work first-hand on WIPO’s various initiatives. The Program offers exposure to both technical and strategic aspects of IP, allowing YEP participants to gain skills and knowledge that can contribute to the future economic growth of their countries and regions.
This is a unique opportunity for your career and a leadership program for life!
The YEP is not intended as a vehicle for recruitment into WIPO, but to grow IP leaders who can then make a difference on the ground in different parts of the world. As such, and in line with the practice in similar programs, participants in the YEP will not be allowed to apply for any jobs at WIPO during their time as a YEP. Those participating will also not be allowed to work at or for WIPO in the two years following the end of their participation in the YEP.
