WIPO is getting ready to release the next stable version of WIPO Sequence, the first since May 2023. Some important items to note:
- WIPO Version 3.0.0 will be released to users via phased rollout for a smoother transition.
- This means that any critical errors will not affect all users.

- Some improvements in version 3.0.0 include:
- A new database
- Improved performance when generating larger listings
- WIPO Sequence Validator incorporated within the desktop tool
- Corrections to existing minor bugs
- Users will be able to roll back to version 2.3.0 even if they test version 3.0.0.
- Projects created in version 3.0.0 cannot be copied into version 2.3.0.
