The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), in collaboration with Global Game Jam (GGJ), is organizing the Next Great IP Game Jam virtual event, which will take place from October 9 to 27, 2025.
The event is intended for young video game creators aged 15 to 35, who will be tasked with designing games with franchise potential – with the focus on character development, a recognizable visual identity and accompanying products.
Through expert workshops and lectures, participants will learn how copyrights, trademarks, patents, industrial designs and trade secrets can help protect and develop their ideas.
The best games from each region will be announced as winners in November 2025, and the winners will receive the opportunity for mentorship, promotion of their work and networking with industry experts.
