Intellectual Property in Today’s Scenario is driving the world economy

Today, We live in an economy where ideas generated by people and the inventions they make are the new currency. Possession of land, labour and capital are just not enough for a country to succeed. Creativity and innovation are the new drivers of the world economy. Research and innovation are now seen as the key differentiatingfactors determining the market value of a product or service. The policies adopted by a country shall determine the nation’s growth and further how it is developing the trapped intellectual capital.

An effective intellectual property system is the foundation of such a strategy..The emphasis today has graduated from cost arbitrage and quality deliverables to IP creation and R&D.

Within knowledge-based, innovation-driven economies, the intellectual property system is a dynamic tool for wealth creation providing an incentive for enterprises and individuals to create and innovate; a fertile setting for the development of, and trade in intellectual assets; and a stable environment for domestic and foreign investment.
