Our Culture

Culture is what connects us and makes us who we are in IPO. It’s our shared values, practices and norms that guide us and inform how we operate to make this a brilliant place to work.

The IPO has a published five-year corporate strategy - Making life better by supporting UK creativity and innovation focusing on 3 key areas:

  • Delivering Excellent IP Services
  • Creating a World Leading IP Environment
  • Making the IPO a Brilliant Place to Work

Here at the IPO we want a culture built on fairness and opportunity for all. Our principles for interacting with each other reinforce this and ask all our people to be respectful, reasonable, pragmatic, confident and accountable.

We continue to articulate our culture, One-IPO, as one that highlights the very best of what we can be. This along with a zero-tolerance approach to bullying and harassment, is helping us to transformation our organisation for the future. 

"We are adaptable, we value ideas and take opportunities to make the IPO better. We are accountable for our experience, development and performance and build effective relationships with colleagues. Together we deliver our strategy, share our successes and are connected to each other and our organisation."
