Germany: Refreshed & re-launched CIOPORA.org gets new look

Waiting for spring impatiently has just been removed from the CIOPORA’s agenda, as already now, on the break of winter, the association’s new website stands in bloom demonstrating the best of horticulture. The brand new internet presence of CIOPORA, which was launched on November 20, welcomed its visitors with a fresh and colorful design. However, the eye-candy looks is not everything the new CIOPORA.org has to offer. The recent re-launch was primarily aimed at the enhancement of the user experience, as well as update and restructuring of the contents. Within the framework of CIOPORA’s communication strategy the new website was designed to become the central source of information about CIOPORA, its activities and positions on IP by consolidating all the available digital contents about the association.

The new features of CIOPORA.org include a dynamic news-slider screening the snippets of the cross-referenced log of CIOPORA’s latest activities, an all-new CIOPORA Publications category with a full collection of the association’s appearances in media and press-releases, as well as a quick navigation menu for direct access to the most important facts about the community of plant breeders. Those interested in CIOPORA membership will now find the whole information package online: the newly released CIOPORA Credentials brochure, the CIOPORA film, which is also available on the video web-platform Vimeo, the Bylaws of the association, previews of CIOPORA Chronicles & Newsletters, a gallery with captions of CIOPORA events, as well as a library of CIOPORA’s position papers.

Members of CIOPORA are offered a reorganized and enriched download center, which includes all CIOPORA documents ranging from presentations held by leading IP experts at the association’s seminars and conferences to detailed event and AGM reports. The navigation of the comprehensive content is supported by intuitive icons. For the users’ convenience the CIOPORA’s profile on the business network LinkedIn.com is included into the quick navigation. Although at the moment the website is available only in English, the development of German, French and Spanish versions are planned.

The newly launched website will regularly deliver news about CIOPORA and its positions on Intellectual Property Protection for plant innovation. For breeders, growers, IP lawyers and everyone who believes in value of innovation – CIOPORA.org is a brand new place to navigate.
