H.E. said: “Intellectual property is a key enabler of our country’s knowledge-based economic model,
fostering innovation and supporting entrepreneurship in scientific, technological, and cultural fields.
Therefore, the Ministry of Economy and Tourism continues to enhance the UAE’s IP ecosystem in line

with international best practices. To this end, we are forging partnerships with our global partners and
relevant global organisations and keeping pace with global technical and legislative developments in this
regard, aligned with the objectives of ‘We the UAE 2031’ to solidify the UAE’s position as a global hub for

the new economy.”

The agreement was signed by H.E. Bin Touq and Daren Tang, Director General of WIPO. Under the
terms of the agreement, both parties will collaborate on supporting digital transformation, developing joint
projects, and building institutional and human capacities. They will also strengthen policy integration

across innovation, education, industry, and intellectual property through leveraging WIPO’s expertise. A
joint working group will be formed to follow up the implementation, assess progress, update the action
plan, and share technical reports and information, thereby reinforcing the competitiveness of the UAE’s

innovation and creativity sectors at regional and global levels.

This collaboration reaffirms the UAE’s position as a key partner in shaping the global intellectual property

landscape and highlights its leading role in supporting initiatives that foster a resilient, innovation-driven,
and technology-based economy, while safeguarding the intellectual property rights of creators and
inventors across vital sectors.
