Submitted by Efua Halm on

The Technology and Innovation Support Centers (TISCs) Report for 2023 is out!

Incase you didn't know, TISCs play an important role in enabling local innovators to reach their innovation potential by supporting them in accessing and using technological information in patent documents and in scientific and technical publications and in bringing their inventions to market with an effective use of the intellectual property (IP) system. 

The report highlights the main developments and milestones in 2023, with a focus on how TISCs in 93 countries and technology transfer structures continued to cultivate their expertise to meet the needs of local innovators, and how WIPO is supporting them with new resources.

It also includes an outline of activities and achievements from national and regional TISC networks and features new and upcoming WIPO resources available to support TISCs in delivering effective innovation support services in the following areas:

  • Patent searches
  • Patent analytics
  • Technology transfer and institutional IP policies
  • IP commercialization and new product development
