...very crucial role in protecting intellectual property, distinct types of creations of the mind for which a set of exclusive rights are recognized under corresponding fields of law. When the United States put into agreement the North American Free Trade Agreement(NAFTA) , and opened up a lot of our trade barriers with countries all of the world, the key idea was that we were going to begin to change the face of our economy. We were going to do this by profiting off of our intellectual property and enforcing our strong patent and copyright laws around the world while slowly ridding ourselves off our manufacturing base. As the years passed, patent and copyright applications soared through the roof and it seemed as if the idea of intellectual property was working very efficiently. Innovation seemed to be coming from everywhere as there was a high motive to be able to patent or copyright your idea and make heavy profits. This innovation was a crucial part in the rapid expansion of our economy during the 1990’s, but soon this expansion came to a halt. This is heavily due to the fact of the enormous number of patents and copyrights that are being issued: over 240,000 in 2010, which in turn is hindering people’s innovation of new ideas because the groundwork of so many creations is now patented or copyrighted intellectual property (Marks & Clerk/UK). Copyright and patent laws on intellectual property were created to increase incentives for innovation resulting in the expansion of our...

...(ICTs) are transforming societies and fueling the growth of the global economy. Yet despite the broad potential of ICTs, their benefits have not been spread evenly. Indeed, using ICTs effectively to foster social inclusion and economic growth is among the key challenges facing policymakers today. As one of the world’s leading ICT firms, Microsoft brings a unique perspective to this issue, one informed by years of collaboration with the international development community. Microsoft firmly believes that ICTs hold tremendous promise as an enabler of social and economic development. ICTs can help underserved populations obtain, manage and disseminate knowledge and to tap into global networks of information and services. And rapid innovations in technology – the fruits of intensive R&D efforts by Microsoft and others – are making ICTs less expensive and easier to use, bringing the power of ICTs within the reach of ever more people. ICTs promote development across many dimensions. At their most fundamental level, ICTs enable organizations to be more productive, thereby spurring economic growth and helping firms be more competitive. ICTs can also expand the reach and effectiveness of social development projects and have already yielded important benefits in such areas as healthcare, education, and environmental preservation. Public-sector uptake of ICTs is also making governments more efficient and their decision-making more transparent. Finally, many developing countries...

...report intellectual capital Summary In today’s knowledge economy, intellectual capital has been playing an increasingly significant role in creating corporate sustainable competitive advantages and becomes instrumental in determining the enterprise value. Though measuring the value of intellectual capital is difficult, with the emerging of intellectual capital valuation models, a number of leading companies have decided to make additional intellectual capital disclosure. This paper discusses and illustrates the intellectual capital statement. How to effectively measure and disclose intellectual capital in external financial reporting and how the accounting rules for reporting intangibles limit the recognition of intellectual capital and will also be discussed. The final part is proposed approaches to intellectual capital reporting. Introduction Our world is in the rise of new economy, principally driven by the information and knowledge. Today, a number of companies and organizations rely heavily on the knowledge and skills of their stuff and the network of the customer. As these intangible assets became increasingly critical, the limitations on financial statements in explaining a company’s value stress the fact that the source of economic value is no longer the production of material goods but the creation of intellectual capital. Background Definition Stewart first defined intellectual capital as intellectual material-knowledge, information, intellectual property, experience-that...

...Introduction During the early days of computer industry, the software came integrated with hardware. The issue of intellectual property remained confined to hardware only. All this changed during the sixties when software was unbundled from hardware. This gave rise to independent software vendors (ISVs) and the production of standard and custom operating systems, as well as independent applications software’s. Rapid diffusion of low-cost desktop or personnel computer (PC) in late seventies and eighties opened up huge opportunities for ISVs. The software industry gradually increased in terms of overall trade, production and consumption. In 1990s, the widespread diffusion of the Internet created new channels for low-cost distribution and marketing of packaged software, reducing the barriers to entry into the packaged software industry. It also expanded the possibilities for rapid penetration of markets by packaged software products. This rapid increase in consumption of software and easy penetration of market through Internet resulted in increased software piracy, creating a big market in pirated software. According to estimates the global rate of piracy was 59.9% in the year 2010 that means out of the total software sold worldwide 59.9% was fake. Piracy causes huge losses of revenues to software companies every year. This has made the issue of intellectual property protection for software all the more important. The software is a complex product, which has given rise to a totally...

...Discuss why Bolton’s article titled “Imitation vs. Innovation” is useful for developing new product for international market. Argue why reflective imitation can be considered as one of the sustainable business strategy. Generally speaking, there tends to be a negative attitude toward imitation for ones own benefit, especially in business. Oftentimes, imitated products are labeled as “counterfeits, knockoffs” etc. this bias is especially prevalent in the United States, due to the U.S. being more of an innovating market rather than an imitating one. What many people fail to recognize is that as Bolton states in her article, “legal imitation can be an astute competitive strategy in its own right, involving substantial investment, creativity, and expertise.” For Bolton, the notion that imitation is the lazy and effortless way to make money off the work of another business is not correct. Bolton has a more extreme view endorsing the use of imitation, but also differentiates between copying and what is known as “reflective imitation.” Reflective imitation is generalized by Bolton as “learning by watching”, rather than “learning by doing.” There are many possible benefits to using this method for introducing products in the market. In their article, Suarez and Lanzolla state “A firm’s innovation has an almost even probability of success or failure.” This is where the learning by watching comes into play. Rather than copying everything from the innovator, in reflective imitation, the...

...Mike Rondesko, KaChun Fung, Daniel Lozano, Jose Romero Professor Pe’er Final Essay 18 December 2012 Market for Trading R&D failures Advancing ones knowledge based on past failures is vital towards furthering intellectual development. Without understanding as to why something doesn’t work, it would be very unlikely that an efficient goal can be reached. This same concept applies to research and development projects in the modern day industry. Using the knowledge of recent failures is what drives progress and technological advancements. However, discovering failures is insensitive to time, resources, and capital in an ever changing world of product innovation. If knowledge of research and development failures were known to firms prior towards their attempt, product growth would be quicker, less risky and more profitable. A market that traded intellectual failures would be beneficial towards the firm and its stakeholders while improving market efficiency. Since understanding failures is so important towards the progression and advancement of a product, there should be a market in which firms can trade R&D failures. However, this market does not exist. Yet, if we can argue that there are advantages for firms to possess more intellectual knowledge, than this market can have hypothetical value. One of the main reasons why there is currently no market for R&D trading is because it can be advantageous towards a firm’s competition even at a cost. If competitors...
