In celebration of World IP Day 2025 and the theme, “IP and Music”, TIPO collaborated with the Music Copyright Society of Chinese Taipei (MÜST) and the Taipei Music Center (TMC) to organize the “Rhythms of Music and IP: Launching Creative Protection” Forum. The event took place on April 29, 2025, at the Live House D exhibition space of Taipei Music Center, drawing over 150 participants from the music industry, academia, and the creative community. The event was marked by lively interaction, reflecting a strong collective interest in music and intellectual property rights.

In his opening remarks, Director General Cheng-Wei Liao expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to co-host this event with MÜST and TMC—two organizations deeply rooted in Taiwan's music industry. He noted that the seminar's theme echoed WIPO's 2025 focus, “IP and Music: Feel the Beat of IP.” Director General Liao emphasized the importance of recognizing the value of musical creativity, exploring innovative cross-industry applications, and understanding the significance of intellectual property rights protection.

TIPO highlighted that with the rapid advancement of digital technology and the growing diversity of music creation and distribution, it is crucial to stay ahead of industry changes, support creators in safeguarding their rights, encourage lawful licensing, and promote both industry growth and innovative applications. TIPO remains committed to these goals, seeking to inject greater momentum into Taiwan's music and creative industries.
