                Proclamation 10924 of April 26, 2025

                
World Intellectual Property Day, 2025

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                More than 200 years ago, our Founding Fathers 
                recognized the profound importance of intellectual 
                property, enshrining government-granted legal 
                protections in the Constitution to safeguard American 
                innovation. On World Intellectual Property Day, we 
                renew our resolve to protect and secure the creative 
                triumphs of American inventors and artists as they work 
                to pull the future into the present and turn their 
                dreams into our reality.

                Americans have always been leaders in the realms of 
                technology and ideas--and under my Administration, we 
                are driving innovation in every sector, including 
                emerging digital technologies like artificial 
                intelligence. I recently signed an Executive Order on 
                Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial 
                Intelligence to slash red tape and ensure our continued 
                leadership in this and other critical industries like 
                automation, blockchain, data analytics, and 
                cybersecurity.

                For this reason, I established the Council of Advisors 
                on Science and Technology, which is bringing together 
                the best and brightest to shape the United States' 
                innovation policy and ensure our continued 
                technological leadership. My Administration will not 
                waver in protecting and securing emerging, next-
                generation technologies that will drive progress and 
                growth in the 21st century.

                My Administration is taking strong action to protect 
                the promise of American innovation. For too long, our 
                adversaries and allies alike have sapped our strength 
                and exploited American advancements. Through the 
                strategic use of tariffs, we are recentering our trade 
                policy and securing stronger intellectual property 
                protections in new and existing trade deals. Just as we 
                protect our physical property, we will not tolerate the 
                theft of our intellectual property, and we will defend 
                our businesses and people from those who are seeking to 
                steal American jobs and wealth.

                As President Calvin Coolidge once said in an immortal 
                maxim that remains true to this day, ``The business of 
                America is business.'' Our economy is the greatest in 
                the world because we, more than any other country, 
                incentivize individuals to dream big, take risks, and 
                make the impossible possible. Through our promotion and 
                protection of intellectual property, we are empowering 
                musicians, writers, authors, scientists, and inventors 
                to focus on what they do best.

                The future of our great Nation depends on the continued 
                safeguarding of our intellectual property, which fuels 
                economic growth, technological progress, and global 
                competitiveness. This World Intellectual Property Day, 
                we reaffirm our unwavering commitment to protecting and 
                promoting the innovative spirit that continues to make 
                America great.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, do hereby proclaim April 26, 2025, as 
                World Intellectual Property Day. I encourage Americans 
                to celebrate the extraordinary achievements of our 
                creators and inventors and the contributions they have 
                made and will continue making to our country.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                twenty-sixth day of April, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand twenty-five, and of the Independence of the 
                United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                ninth.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
