WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center

The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Arbitration and Mediation Center is the world's leading dispute resolution provider for domain name disputes, administering the majority of all [[udrp]] cases filed globally. Established in 1994, the Center provides neutral, efficient, and cost-effective procedures for resolving disputes involving [[bad-faith-registration]] and trademark infringement in domain names. WIPO also administers dispute resolution for many country-code TLDs under their own policies and publishes landmark [[panelist-decision]] summaries in its jurisprudential overview, which guides consistent interpretation of UDRP criteria worldwide.

Example

A European pharmaceutical company filed a WIPO UDRP complaint over a domain mimicking its brand name; WIPO appointed a three-member panel that ordered transfer within 60 days.
