The Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IPI) is the Swiss Confederation's central authority for patent, design and trade mark protection, indications of source and copyright. It examines, grants and administers industrial property rights and collaborates with government agencies, trade associations and businesses to enforce indications of source within Switzerland and internationally. The IPI also serves as the federal government's primary point of contact for questions on patents, trademarks, geographical indications, design protection and copyright, and it drafts legislation while advising federal authorities on IP matters and representing Switzerland internationally. Based in Bern, the organization is a government administration focused on fostering innovation by helping innovators and creators derive value from their ideas, promoting competitiveness, cultural diversity and social progress. It provides information and training to individuals, startups and companies, and supervises collective rights management organisations for copyright. A recent development involves a collaboration with the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts on a Cantonal Innovation and Creativity Index, illustrating ongoing academic partnerships.
