"“The race for WIPO leadership has become the moment the U.S. woke up to
the fact China is eating our lunch in the multilateral system and that
great-power competition will be fought out in many theaters, including
UN agencies,” said Daniel Runde, the director of the Project on
Prosperity and Development at the Center for Strategic and International
Studies. “WIPO may seem obscure, but it’s a standard-maker and holds
hundreds of billions of our trade secrets in its digital vaults.”"

organization that oversees intellectual property, which could result in
dire consequences for the future of technology and economic competition.
But the U.S.-led effort to prevent this from happening faces a steep
uphill climb.
