Join the IP Corp of the PIIPA

Thanks to The IPKat for pointing us to PIIPA (Public Interest Intellectual Property Advisors, Inc.), an international non-profit organization that makes intellectual property counsel available for developing countries and public interest organizations who seek to promote health, agriculture, biodiversity, science, culture, and the environment. According to their website, PIIPA has three main activities:

1. expanding a worldwide network of IP professional volunteers (the IP Corps);
2. operating a processing center where assistance seekers can apply to find individual volunteers or teams who can provide advice and representation as a public service (free or pro bono); and
3. building a resource center with information for professionals and those seeking assistance.

Volunteer to join the IP Corps of intellectual property (IP) professional volunteers (attorneys, agents, licensing specialists, and others specializing in IP matters) who agree to put their services to good use for global communities.

Apply for assistance from IP professionals who are willing and able to assist.
