<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Dear Members,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>This is to inform you that the Internet
Society (ISOC) now has an official "Permanent Observer Status with the
World Intellectual Property Organization" (WIPO). This is an important
step for ISOC as it gives us the opportunity to engage governments, business
and civil society on vitally important current discussions taking place in
WIPO. For example, ISOC is increasingly influential as we bring our expertise
to bear on intellectual property issues in cyberspace, such as copyright in the
on-line environment, intellectual property and development, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Last June, the Internet Society was
granted status with the WIPO Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights
(SCCR). Our participation showed WIPO the value of our organization's
expertise. At the same time, we found other areas where ISOC can contribute to
the work of different Committees within WIPO. As a result, in May 2010 we
applied for Permanent Observer status in WIPO. After discussion,
our application was approved at the recent WIPO General Assembly, and
officially came into effect on 29 September 2010.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>WIPO "... is a specialized agency
of the United Nations. It is dedicated to developing a balanced and accessible
international intellectual property (IP) system, which rewards creativity,
stimulates innovation and contributes to economic development while
safeguarding the public interest. WIPO was established by the WIPO Convention
in 1967 ... to promote the protection of IP throughout the world through
cooperation among states and in collaboration with other international
organizations" (<em><span style='font-family:"Courier New"'>source: WIPO
website</span></em>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US style='color:black'>We will keep you
informed of our work in this important forum as we deepen our engagement.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
