Besides almost daily articles and occasional special columns, they publish a monthly reader about intellectual property and the policies that affect it.
"IP-Watch" is an editorially independent news agency whose startup funding came from several sources, the MacArthur Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Open Society Institute. Currently, they accept subscription fees for their Monthly Reporter and a subscriber-only online content area, but do not take anonymous donations nor donations from any private corporations. Most of their online content is open access, published under the Creative Commons license.
"Intellectual Property Watch" has no formal owner, and their board of directors meets twice a year to discuss business and legal matters.
On their website, they openly present both industry and industry critics in their "Inside Views" section. They also provide interested developing countries with free copies of their newsletter.
Their founder and board chair is Carolyn Deere.
