Under the witness of MOEA Deputy Minister Ms. Cynthia Kiang, Israel Trade Commissioner and Director of the Foreign Trade Administration Mr. Roey Fisher, TIPO Director General Liao Cheng-wei, and Executive Director of the Israel Patent Office Adv. Mordechay Sorek, two Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs)—The MoU on the PPH MOTTAINAI and the MoU on IP Cooperation between TIPO & ILPO—were signed on November 17, 2025, at the 15th Taiwan–Israel Economic and Technological Cooperation Conference. The MoUs were signed by Representative Ms. Abby Lee of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Israel and Representative Ms. Maya Yaron of the Israel Economic and Cultural Office in Taipei, respectively.

The TIPO–ILPO PPH program will take effect on January 2, 2026. The new PPH MoU with ILPO makes Israel Taiwan’s eighth PPH partner, following the United States, Japan, Spain, Korea, Poland, Canada, and France.

In addition, under the framework of the MoU on IP cooperation, the two Offices will also pursue cooperation in areas such as information exchange, professional exchanges, and the promotion of intellectual property awareness.

TIPO has long been committed to fostering a business-friendly intellectual property environment. The MoU on the PPH MOTTAINAI and the MoU on IP Cooperation, both signed today between TIPO and ILPO, lay a solid foundation for practical cooperation between the two sides, facilitate enterprises’ patent portfolio development, and jointly generate new momentum for industry development.
