Eligible Organizations

PIIPA is partnering with IP professionals from around the world who are willing and able to provide legal, practical, and expert advice to organizations in less developed countries on a pro bono publico basis. PIIPA is designed to provide assistance through corps of pro bono professionals to organizations or groups of individuals who are confronted with matters pertaining to Intellectual Property. Whether it be to patent a product or to prevent the interference of action leading up to product development, PIIPA’s goal is to find the best suited professional who is willing to assist on a pro bono or significantly reduced basis. A principal goal of PIIPA is to improve the ability of developing countries to manage, protect, or challenge IP in the public interest. To this end, PIIPA was formed to help governments, government agencies and non-government public service organizations acquire IP expertise on a pro bono basis, in order to meet the health, agricultural, environmental and cultural needs of poor and underprivileged people in developing countries and worldwide. We will typically will not consider requests from organizations whose primary purpose is political or religious; however, if those organizations have a specific non-political or secular activity that directly benefits the advancement of a less developed country or it’s people, we will consider the request.
