World IP Day, April 26, 2019

CIFE is celebrating World IP Day today, Friday, April 26. Intellectual property is the economic engine that drives the American and global economies.

Did you know that 45,000,000 (that’s 45 MILLION!) Americans are employed in IP-intensive industries. What’s more, the average worker in an IP-intensive industry earns a whopping 46% more than his or her counterpart in a non-IP industry.

America’s IP is worth an amazing $6.6 Trillion, thanks to strong IP laws. CIFE is committed to making certain that American IP laws remain strong, so America’s economy continues to innovate, grow, and prosper.

So go ahead, raise a toast to World IP Day, and all the support you provide CIFE to keep IP strong. Thank you, and be sure to check out these articles that provide excellent examples of how IP drives the global marketplace in the 21st Century:
