Tonga is hosting the Heads of Intellectual Property Office Conference (HIPOC) on May 19–20, 2025.

With the theme “A Whole of Government Approach to Intellectual Property Development in the Pacific”, we’re bringing together leaders from across the Pacific to talk about how we can strengthen intellectual property in our region.

It’s all about working together as a region to support innovation and protect what our people create through effective IP frameworks. Proudly hosted by the Ministry of Trade & Economic Development, with support from WIPO and JPO.
