“Intellectual Property (IP) is the enabler of quality economic growth. Participation of the people in IP not only democratize wealth but ensures value for the communities. I am pleased to see World BI addressing these issues for the real economy to better all humanity.”

Welcome Note From Our Strategic Advisor

“Businesses with brands at growth and expansion phases need to navigate the fast paced ever changing IP landscape due to digitalisation, AI, geo-politics, competitors’ innovations and the need to raise capital and financing to address the market needs and these changes. ASEAN is an important region that must be understood. Brands continue to be a critical asset and tool. I welcome you to join us at a conference that condenses key nuggets along the spectrum of IP: from protection to data management, sustainability to monetisation. Learn from industry experts and leading practitioners about what matters in a two-day packed conference and network with like minded entrepreneurs and professionals willing to share insights and practical aspects. See you there!”
