DUBAI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News / WAM – 08th May, 2026) The Emirates Association for Talents will celebrate on Monday the sixth edition of Arab Intellectual Property Day, launched by the Creators Union of Arab, a United Nations member, in conjunction with World Intellectual Property Day, reflecting the UAE’s advanced position as a hub for creativity, a global platform for innovation, and a protector of intellectual rights.
The event, to be held at Dubai Police Club, will bring together the Creators Union of Arab and a distinguished group of experts, specialists, intellectual, legal and sports figures from various Arab countries and international institutions.
The event is organised as part of the association’s ongoing efforts to support creators and innovators and promote a culture of intellectual property protection across Arab societies.

He added that the event seeks to strengthen respect for intellectual property rights, raise community awareness of their importance, and open new horizons for creators, innovators and entrepreneurs to invest in their ideas and transform them into sustainable development projects that contribute to building a more innovative and prosperous future.

This year’s edition will address the growing relationship between sports innovation and intellectual property rights, mechanisms for investing intellectual assets in developing the sports economy and enhancing its sustainability, as well as showcasing modern experiences in protecting trademarks, media rights and innovations related to the sports industry.
