The Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA) is a non-profit organisation established in August 1996 and registered in Geneva, Switzerland. Its purpose is to promote the development of specifications of generic agent technologies that maximise interoperability within and across agent-based applications.

FIPA has already developed a seven-part specification called FIPA 97. Implementations of FIPA 97 are undergoing field trials that will last until October 1998 when version 2 of FIPA 97 will be produced. Updated versions of FIPA 97 are already available. FIPA has already produced version 0.2 of its new set of specifications called FIPA 98.
