Summary

The adoption of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) signals a way forward not only for the United Nations more broadly, but also for the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). The SDGs offer a revised vision of development for the United Nations, and they also suggest that partnerships, including public-private partnerships (PPPs), will play a key role in meeting the SDG targets. This chapter considers WIPO’s use of PPPs through the lens of networked governance, and links it to current and ongoing deliberations and initiatives on intellectual property and development efforts at the organization.
