Description

Intellectual Property law as we know it has been shaped by technology evolutions over the last century, today’s tech innovations seems to have a higher disruptive effect on traditional IP legal concepts. Think AI, algorithms, data science, connected objects, or even life science new techs. Is our IP legal system outdated? How should we, as lawyers, address today’s legal challenges relating to machine-generated innovation, machine learning capabilities, and data processing? What evolutions should we reasonably foresee, in terms of legal doctrines, but also from a governance and policy perspective? And in that context, what will be the role of the IPOs of tomorrow? Francis Gurry has led the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) as Director General since October 1, 2008. Under his leadership, WIPO has addressed major challenges, including notably managing the stress on the international patent and copyright systems produced by rapid technological change, globalization and increased demand; and ensuring that the IP system serves its fundamental purpose of encouraging creativity and innovation in all countries. Every two weeks, on Tuesday, Brand & New gives the floor to inspiring individuals, with a 360-degree vision, to help brand owners, intellectual property lawyers, and marketing and finance professionals (and beyond!) stay curious and agile in an ever-evolving business environment.
