Description
Many emerging and developing economies follow a model of maximising ownership and base their innovation policies on European and US approaches. Do they have an opportunity to take a radical approach to intellectual property and if so, what could that look like and what would it mean for equitable and sustainable development?
- Elisabeth Eppinger (Freie Universität Berlin) on sustainable technology and innovation management.
- Kenneth Huang (National University of Singapore) [via teleconference] on firms’ innovation and IP strategies in the emerging economy of China and the interaction of uncertain IP conditions and open science strategies.
- Valeria Arza (CENIT) [via teleconference] on open collaborative practices for sustainability technologies.
- Victor Nzomo (Strathmore University Law School & Open African Innovation Research Partnership) [via teleconference] on approaches to IP in African hi-tech hubs.
