Taguig City - In 2020, the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) – Technology Application and Promotion Institute (TAPI) surpassed its annual targets for intellectual property (IP) filing, contributing part of the lion share in the country’s IP register.
Despite a contracted national IP filing performance in 2020, the worst since 1998 according to the data released by Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPhil), DOST-TAPI exceeded expectations as it achieved more than 100% of its annual targets in IP filing, further sealing its claim as one of the country’s premier enabler of inventions and innovations.
