INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY WATCH

'''Intellectual Property Watch''' is a Geneva based publication reporting on policy issues and influences relating to international organizations (IOs), especially those in Geneva such as the World Intellectual Property Organization, World Trade Organization, World Health Organization and International Telecommunication Union. It also follows policy developments outside Geneva, and does some investigative reporting.
Besides almost daily blogs and occasional special columns, they publish a monthly reader about intellectual property and the policies that affect it.
''IP-Watch'' is an editorially independent non-profit whose startup funding came from several sources, the MacArthur Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Open Society Institute. Currently, they accept subscription fees for their Monthly Reporter, but do not take anonymous donations nor donations from any private corporations. All of their online content is open access, published under the Creative Commons licence.
''IP-Watch'' has no formal owner, and their board of directors meets twice a year to discuss business and legal matters. ''IP-Watch'' is typically viewed as centrist, or slightly left, and aims to be professional journalism, written only by accredited journalists. It has no advocacy role.
On their website, they openly present both industry and industry critics in their "Inside Views" section. They also provide interested developing countries with free copies of their newsletter
Their Founder and Board Chair is Carolyn Deere.
