What are the outreach initiatives run by IPOS?
|
|
IPOS' public outreach initiatives aim to groom an IP savvy generation by raising IP awareness among general public and educating them from young on IP issues.
Driving this is IPOS' key outreach initiaitve - the HIP Alliance. The HIP (Honour IP) Alliance, established since 2002 is a collaborative effort between the public and private sector. Our HIP Partners work with us to champion a movement through a wide spectrum of programmes and activities so as to inspire the general public to respect IP and to reject piracy. Members of the public are encouraged to support this movement by pledging their respect for IP and becoming our HIP Friends through active participation.

What are some offline activities for the Educators/Students?
|
|
During the Jun/Dec holidays every year, an IP Champion Camp will be held where students can learn more about IP and show their creative talents by producing their own creations (IP). Through this exercise, participants will be able to understand that IP is everywhere and that they, too can be creators and proud owners of their own IP.
