Abstract:
Rapid changes are underfoot in the world of IP innovation, but how do creators and businesses protect, promote and sell their ideas when global tensions are high? There are now wars and cold wars to consider as the world rolls out ChatGPT, EV advancements, …. Instead of collaborating, some countries seem to be going back to home-growing their technology. The U.S. has stopped many tech transfers to China, while China’s central political committee recently listed self-innovation as one of its 5 focal points. If everyone is trying to keep technological development close to home from beginning to end, how can intellectual assets be distributed? Will inflation limit the amount of financial investments in the IP space, or is IP possibly the one investment that can save us? With political leadership changes, the U.S. Patent Eligibility Restoration Act of 2022 may likely pass, limiting what may be eligible for a patent. Travel has opened up, but pandemic supply-chain disruptions remain. We will explore the possibilities in this new world order as well as how the innovation engine can maintain its steam in the ever-evolving digital and virtual world.

概要:
知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)創(chuàng)新的劇變正在發(fā)生，在全球緊張局勢(shì)下，發(fā)明人和企業(yè)如何保護(hù)、推廣和商業(yè)化他們的創(chuàng)意？在戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)和冷戰(zhàn)的陰霾下， ChatGPT、電動(dòng)車等顛覆性創(chuàng)新事物的浪潮仍席捲全球.... 與以往不同，一些國(guó)家摒棄合作，回歸本國(guó)技術(shù)培育。美國(guó)已經(jīng)停止了對(duì)中國(guó)的多種技術(shù)轉(zhuǎn)讓，而中國(guó)亦將自主創(chuàng)新列為經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的工作重點(diǎn)之一。如果各國(guó)都試圖將技術(shù)發(fā)展囿於本國(guó)，那麼無(wú)形資產(chǎn)將如何分配？通貨膨脹是否會(huì)限制知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)領(lǐng)域的金融投資，抑或知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)可以成為拯救我們的一項(xiàng)投資？隨著政局的變化，《2022年美國(guó)專利資格恢復(fù)法案》可能會(huì)獲得通過(guò)，將對(duì)獲得專利的資格將加以限制。經(jīng)濟(jì)往來(lái)已經(jīng)恢復(fù)，但受疫情衝擊的供應(yīng)鏈中斷仍然存在。本次研討會(huì)，我們將探討在這個(gè)新的世界秩序中的可能性，以及如何在不斷發(fā)展的數(shù)字和虛擬世界中保持創(chuàng)新的活力。
