Shifting IPR Paradigms • System that originated as Private Rights (Industrial Property). Legal Framework for inanimate but tangible creations of the human mind • Extension of the system to protection of inanimate but seemingly intangible creations • Further extension to tangible animate objects such as life forms • Now the same framework is being extended for protection of tangible and intangible creations of communities over generations…. including modes for benefit sharing arrangements.
Shifting IPR Paradigms • Next Steps…… National ownership of biodiversity; private ownership and rights of flora and fauna; collection of bio materials for research work; issues of prior informed consent; issues of disclosure of the origin of biological materials in patent specifications, issues of benefit sharing arrangements between patent applicants/owners for inventions based on traditional knowledge and materials form “private” and or “public sources”

The financing of R&D has also changed over time … Business financing of R&D has taken on greater importance as innovation has become more important for firm performance – high-tech industries have grown in particular. Government’s share has declined and other national sources (notably non-profit institutions) have become more important sources of R&D financing.

Concerns ………….Limited access to international knowledge base in specific fields…….………... Most research though government funded are being done in a fragmented manner and not leading to quality publications ……..lack of information resources and literature search skillsleading to “reinventing the wheel”……….. …………inadequate utilisation of local traditional knowledge and building on the same……improper selection of research topics thereby propagating “me-too” areas.
Concerns ………….Students and researchers aim to publish in high impact peer reviewed journals where publications costs are high and unaffordable….………... Growth in career based on quality publications in recognised peer reviewed journals………. Industry support in R&D come with their own restrictions on publications and lack of implementable institutional policies and national policies become bottlenecks……….. IP applications for industry sponsored research prior to publications
Concerns …...Several Science and Technologies getting orphaned due to non availability of funds to progress…….inadequate infrastructure, management skills, negotiation acumen, inadequate venture capital culture………..sprouting of IPR trolls in developing countries to exploit the existing vacuum created by lack of Central, Competent Knowledge and IPR Management in Universities and institutions….lack of skills and maturity in the process of forging partnerships
