RIGHTS AND PATENT SYSTEMS
INNOVATION
WHAT IS INNOVATION?
Innovations are:
- New and original products, services, ideas
- Which are used in a market or society and
- Add ‘value’ to a company and/or have impact on a society
Examples:
Oral contraceptives, television, antibiotics, vaccines, mobile phones, computers, the internet,
Facebook, self-driving cars, robots
PROTECTING INNOVATIONS
- Patent protection by granting exclusivity rewards creators for innovations that are
commercially successful
o You can have a patent, but if your product doesn’t work than you have nothing
- Society benefits from the economic opportunities it creates
o The patent helps companies, typical also the society with for example job
opportunities
- The revenues from these technologies provide for the financing of additional research and
development endeavors
o The revenue will allow companies to further invest, which will keep the ball rolling
- The patent process turns an invention into a commercial asset (which can be sold or licensed)
- Intellectual property (IP) assets such as patents can also attract investors to the business (to
attract money)
- The information about the invention can inspire future creations, which may lead to
additional patented innovations
o The information in the patent is published and will allow other people to continue
development on that product
- The mapping of patent information allows policymakers to see where valuable research and
development is occurring, thus helping to shape policy and regulation to support innovation
o This is a good way to track innovation within a country for instance
IS THERE A NEED TO INNOVATE?
- Innovation is vital to competitiveness to the global economy. Research leads to improved
goods, services or processes for the market.
o Can you be successful without innovation, probably yes, but it is seen that the ability
to patent your development is in general a positive factor for success and
competitiveness.
- Studies show that those companies that prioritize innovation are also those that experience
the highest increase in turnover.
