INTELLECTUAL PROPERY RIGHTS: ECONOMY Vs

ABSTRACT

I proposed to ensure that sustainable and equitable benefits arise out of the protection of

intellectual property, it is essential to understand the impact IP has in areas such as public

health, access to knowledge, and other fields that directly affect the population at hand.

There is technological progress; there is a positive rate of growth. Following an

improvement in technology, the economy grows and reaches a new steady state. Thus,

innovation is encouraged through protection of IPRs, but creates an artificial monopoly

for a time which increases the cost of using that technology. Other methods involve fiscal

incentives and public investment. For instance, the government could offer tax credits to

entrepreneurs or give concessions to businesses as well as invest in R&D itself. It is

perhaps the IPRs issue which is most relevant to considering the law and economics

aspects of growth.

INTRODUCTION

The countries that possess major resources in science and technology, innovative

capability, and investment capital. A system of intellectual property (IP) rights can

encourage inventions by scientists and help promote the transformation of research

achievements into marketed products.

In India economic health of nations and the competitiveness of firms is determined

largely by the ability to develop, from scientific and technological (S&T) innovations.

Intellectual property rights (IPRs), such as patents and copyrights, are an important

means used by firms to help protect their investments in innovation. They are legal

instruments that have been used by governments for industrial development and

economic growth.

IPRs protect investments in innovation by granting patent for innovator.Today lot of

innovation can ready to file application concern IPR department.manily Government

spend lot of amount for spread the awarness programme for various sector. In the IPR are

very useful for indiscrimination of education , farmer etc..

Thus, IPRs an incentive to technological innovation and the objective of encouraging the

rapid diffusion of new technology and the gathering of technological knowledge.

ECONOMY IN IPR

Economy of rate incerase based on certain science & technology basically lot of

innovation are used various scetor like small scale industry, Small and Medium scale

industry. The desire to preserve domestic employment and to maintain domestic

production for reasons of national security The technological innovations in production

have involved mass production and standardization. The emerging technologies make it

possible to give an effective answer to the demand for diversification, product

customization, and personalization; these are innovation can take place lot of

employment are create to place establish the work.Inadequate IPR protection is that

economic losses suffered by innovating firms could lead to a reduction in the rate of

industrial innovation in the country and other technologically advanced countries capable

of generating innovations. A lower rate of innovation could, in turn, result in slower

world economic growth, which would hurt countries.

EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES

Some of the most significant emerging technologies—including those in the areas of

information, electronics, communications, and the new biotechnology—do not fit neatly

within existing categories of intellectual property rights.1 They may force a of current

approaches to protection at national and international levels.

This compression is especially apparent in microelectronics and the information

technologies, sectors in which international competition and academic and industrial

research activities are intense.These are existing technology are avaliable in India but

how can patent example like software ; India patent are more or less suitable for

electronic, communication, mechanical are know all people. In this trend can take place

modify /enforce IPR, IPR law to generate lot of income.

In R&D

This difficulty is due to the rapid diffusion of technology; the obsolescence of existing

facilities and the high capital costs of new facilities, particularly in microelectronics and

some of the new fields; the complexity of scientific and technological endeavors

economies of scale; R&D in industry, develop products that make a profit for the

company.

COMPUTER SOFTWARE

Computer software is expensive to develop but relatively easy to copy, conditions that

make it highly vulnerable to infringement of intellectual property rights. The issue of how

to protect computer software, in india can do copyrights today lot IT sector are involved

FDI but indian contion not avaliable software patent instead of copyrights.

COPYRIGHTS VS PATENT

In India similar problems with respect to existing forms of intellectual property

protection. Like computer software development, designing and preparing masks for chip

manufacture are expensive, but reproducing masks is relatively simple and inexpensive.

Basically ship can embedded in software program. this saame program can be patent in

like chip simillarlly same concept deal with written work for copyrights both are diffent

person The basic technology for manufacturing chips is well established, so it is difficult

to establish novelty or nonobviousness as is generally necessary for patent protection.

Yet, a chip design is usually too functional to meet the requirements for copyright.

BIOTECHNOLOGY

One of the most important issues, which has been raised due to the emergence of modern

biotechnology, is the legal characterization and treatment of trade related

biotechnological processes and products, popularly described as Intellectual Property its

protection. Due to these intellectual properties, many legal and public policies, which are

impediments to biotechnological research are also being challenged and are, therefore,

undergoing changes. Intellectual property is the development of crop varieties in

agriculture. They are also promote employment & increase agriculture product Since a

better understanding of intellectual property by research scientists and university/institute

administrators will increase the pace of research for technological development in

biotechnology

India is already member of

• Paris Convention

• PCT

• Berne Convention

• Convention on biological diversity


10

• WTO

During the last two decades of the 20th century (1980-2000), a large number of

biotechnology companies came into existence with limited resources for R&D, created to

encourage process patenting rather than novel product development in bio-technology.

Cheaper labor, technical capacity and expertise may capture markets away from

companies in the developed countries

CONCLUSION

Countries that protect patent rights well also protect other forms of intellectual property

Today India face lot of unemployment & proverty; lots of scheme is announced central

and state government to overcome the proverty. In meanwhile IPR how to utlised in

science & technology and overcome proverty, unemployment. In India country 22% GDP

based on Agriculture and also lot of people are not interest in this sector. How to involve

the people to encourage the agriculture sector and also emergeny technology using this

sector through IPR. In this period Goverenment announced “second Green Revolution“.

In this revolution impetus Science and technology. In education people provide job

various current technology lot of Software Company are avaliable in india current lot

innovation in software country but patent are outside only. it may enforce IPR LAW to

generate Icome
