Latin America IP Alliance
We empower IP for a better and more sustainable future for our planet, for present & future generations.
The 3 GLIPA Pillars
Intellectual Property Awareness & Education
At GLIPA, we believe in the transformative power of Intellectual Property (IP) to shape ideas into meaningful realities that improve lives. One of our goals is to build a deeper understanding of IP—what it is, why it matters, and how it drives progress. We collaborate with key Organizations globally to foster a strong foundation in IP knowledge. We aim to inspire innovation, creativity, and practical problem-solving across generations.
Intellectual Property Ecosystem Collaboration
GLIPA unites, on a worldwide basis, regional, national, and local stakeholders (creators, enablers, and protectors, among others), bringing together diverse perspectives and fostering a dynamic, efficient, effective, and collaborative Intellectual Property (IP) ecosystem that supports economic growth and promotes social well-being.
Intellectual Property Access and Engagement
GLIPA works to bring Intellectual Property (IP) to the hands of all. We believe in the power of IP as a tool to ensure all people and ideas around the globe have an opportunity for success.

3 GOOD REASONS WHY TO JOIN GLIPA
The alliance brings together, for the first time, worldwide leaders of various public and private sectors committed to a vibrant IP ecosystem, economic prosperity and social well-being through the use of intellectual property. It is a unique networking space.
Necessary conversation between the public/private sectors
Our stakeholders (creators, enablers, protectors among others) bring diverse perspectives and engage in collaborative endeavors to increase society’s understanding of what IP is, why it is important, and how everyone can use it to transform their ideas into realities that improve peoples’ lives.
To enhance collaboration across the innovation ecosystem
The alliance is working through regional alliances that are driving efforts on the ground in participant countries. We are not a trade group, and our only goal is to be the voice of the citizens in the IP ecosystem. We do not advocate policy issues on behalf of any specific economic sector.
We work with a global, regional and in-country perspective
