Public consultations

If you have an interest in the direction of intellectual property (IP) in Australia, our public consultations are an opportunity to have your say on past, current and future policies.

Who we work with

We work closely with a wide range of stakeholders to:

  • understand their needs and goals
  • receive valuable expertise and insights
  • help us make informed changes to our policy.

Our stakeholders include:

  • customers
  • researchers
  • businesses
  • legal professionals
  • IP and business peak bodies
  • other Australian government departments
  • the general public.

We also collaborate with the Department of Industry, Science and Resources to advise the Australian Government on IP policy, as well as international stakeholders to facilitate trade, investment and technology transfer.
