According to the annual International IP Index by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Italy holds the 9th position among European countries (13th out of 55 overall), boasting an average score of 83.9%. Delving into the specifics, Italy demonstrates strong scores in safeguarding trade secrets (91.67%), patents (88.89%) and design rights (87.5%). However, there remains room for improvement in ensuring copyright (70.14%) and trademark (75%) rights protection. The implementation of EU Directive 2019/790 on Copyright and Related Rights in the Digital Single Market (CDSM Directive), coupled with generous R&D and IP tax incentives, could serve as valuable tools in advancing IP safety.

🧠 According to research, up to 90% of company value is linked to its intellectual capital – and yet the number of intellectual property (IP) infringements in the past years has risen. 🔒 Europe distinguishes itself for being one of the most attentive regions in terms of IP protection, with most European countries scoring above 70/100, as highlighted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s annual International IP Index. However, the score of European countries (and other major economies in the world) has remained stagnant, signalling a need for change to maintain leadership. 📄 The challenges posed by IP theft facilitated by AI platforms could provide a compelling starting point to review and update current policies, ensuring they meet the evolving needs of the contemporary landscape. #36Brains #CorporateIntelligence #BusinessInvestigations #IPInfringement #IntellectualProperty #IPTheft #IPInfringementInvestigations

Law360 published an article co-authored by partners Amir Ghavi, Ilan Graff and associate Dan Liberman examining the US Securities and Exchange Commission's recent lawsuit against Joonko Diversity, its first public AI-focused enforcement action against a private company, which underscores the importance of applying the same internal legal and compliance rigor to AI-related claims as other market-facing statements.

Opening what will be many discussions on the topic of international arbitration, Moderator Velimir Zivkovic took us through some of the historical context of the rise of arbitration as a tool, current trends and challenges and how he sees AI impacting arbitration in the future. https://lnkd.in/dE8q4DcQ

Is justice served? In today’s high-tech, AI-driven world, access to information is widespread. Yet, we are seeing a troubling phenomenon: unqualified individuals gain positions of power, using their influence and legal maneuvering to unjustly benefit themselves. These leaders often draft contracts that serve only their interests, without regard for fairness or the harm they cause to others. Disturbingly, despite their actions, they receive recognition too, further entrenching their power. Justice, in such cases, is elusive. The legal systems, which should protect fairness and equality, sometimes fall short. Contracts, rather than being balanced agreements, can become tools for exploitation, leaving those without power at the mercy of the powerful. This modern exploitation echoes the days of figures like Al Capone, where instead of brute force, the manipulation of laws is now the weapon of choice. The absence of adequate legal protections for those under such contracts creates an environment where justice remains unserved. The solution must come from reform: legal frameworks need to evolve to close these loopholes, ensuring that contracts are fair and transparent. Checks and balances must be enforced rigorously to protect individuals and prevent abuse of power, ensuring that justice is upheld for all in this complex, modern landscape.

Bravo! The first law to regulate the use of artificial intelligence was approved in the European Union! this is a very significant day for mankind, without a doubt this law will create precedents at a global level that will help outline the efforts that are already being generated in countries such as Mexico, the United States and Chile, among others... AliPsé, the first on-line solution against fake news.

Recommended: Generative Artificial Intelligence: the impact on intellectual property crimes by Eurojust and EUIPO - European Union Intellectual Property Office This document was prepared by the Intellectual Property Crime Project at the European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperation (Eurojust). The Intellectual Property Crime Project is funded by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) and executed by Eurojust under the terms agreed in the service level agreement signed between the two organisations in March 2021. The IPC Project aims at boosting cooperation and ensuring a more coherent and robust response against IP infringements across the EU. The IPC Project focuses on building, promoting and exchanging knowledge, tools and expertise, as well as on awareness raising and the provision of enhanced legal and operational support to complex cross-border IPC investigations. #AI #justice #governance
