Details

WIPO is conducting market engagement in preparation for a potential future procurement for the provision of custodian services.

The purpose of this webinar is to provide prospective suppliers with an overview of WIPO's anticipated requirements and to gain a better understanding of the current market, including available service models, capabilities, industry practices and other relevant considerations.

The webinar will also provide an opportunity for interested suppliers to ask questions and share information that may assist WIPO in developing its future procurement approach and requirements.

The webinar is scheduled for Wednesday, 30 September 2026 at 14:30 Geneva time.

Interested suppliers are invited to register in order to attend the webinar using the following link:

The webinar will be recorded and the recording may be made available subsequently for prospective suppliers who are unable to attend the live session.

Please note that this market engagement is for information-gathering and consultation purposes only. It does not constitute a solicitation, tender or request for proposals, and no proposal or offer is expected from suppliers at this stage. Participation in the market engagement will not create any commitment on the part of WIPO to launch a procurement or to invite any particular supplier to participate in a future solicitation.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
