The WIPO South Africa Summer School is an engaging conference hosted by the Mangosuthu University of Technology in Durban, South Africa. This program is aimed at senior students (graduate and postgraduate) and young professionals from various fields who wish to deepen their understanding of intellectual property (IP) and the role of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Participants need to have prior knowledge of IP, as all applicants must have successfully completed the WIPO Distance Learning Course on Intellectual Property Management (DL 450) before being considered for the program.
