Authors:Sukanlaya Sawang, Arun Sukumar, Poh Yen Ng, Vahid Jafari-Sadeghi Pages: 309 - 324 Abstract: From military history to city factories, commercial and civilian use of drones has seen an exponential rise in a few years. As a result of the consistent development of technology, the drone invention has made its way into various countries' commercial and civilian sectors. There has been a lot of change in aviation technology recently, and the legal framework is still trying to catch up on both the international and national levels. The widespread use of drones will benefit the business ecosystem, which includes companies that manufacture drones and companies that use drones as a service. The rapid adoption of technology raises many important issues that must be addressed to keep the drone ecosystem growing. Restrictions on export, import, intellectual property rights (IPR) management, product liability, insurance, and safety and security affect people and property rights. Civil and commercial drone use is growing, requiring a consistent regulatory framework and an agreement on important issues.

Authors:Abhishek Thommandru, Benarji Chakka Pages: 325 - 341 Abstract: Emerging technology can help in mitigating money laundering and other financial crimes. Blockchain is considered one of the world's best-known emerging technologies. It can change many processes, payments between peer-to-peer, trade agreements and reducing compliance cost. The banking sector is identified as the main means for laundering illicit money, banks generally have access to both banking mechanism and legal authority to make decisions. Money launderers and those financing terrorism are conveniently accessing financial institutions and making their profitable channel of loopholes in its mechanism like manipulating know-your-customer (KYC). To bridge this gap this current paper focuses on issues of compliance and anti-money laundering policies in the banking sector by using blockchain; the paper keenly focuses on KYC manipulation and the financial burden on banks for anti-money laundering (AML) compliance policies. This work examines the fault lines in the current financial system followed by regulators and questions how better these gaps could be remedied. This research uniquely relates to the capability of blockchain technology to bring banking systems with recalibrated mode of compliances polices.

Authors:Abhishek Thommandru, Benarji Chakka Pages: 342 - 357 Abstract: Technological advances have led to the harm of sexual violence being perpetrated online, through image-based sexual abuse. While existing criminal and privacy laws against this harm are being strengthened to provide justice to the victims, the court process is tedious, time consuming and expensive, while the private images remain on the internet, thus continuing the harm. The UK copyright laws can be used to curb this spread. By relying on intermediary liability under the E-Commerce Directive 2000, victims can use the takedown notice approach to remove their images, which despite its drawbacks, remains to be effective. However, this approach can only be relied on by victims who are the authors/owners of the copyright in their private images. Often, victim's private images/videos are taken without their knowledge, resulting in their copyright belonging to the perpetrator. In such cases, I have argued that delivery-up of copyright to the victim will prove to be an appropriate remedy to take down such content from the internet.

Authors:Clement Sternberger, Frederic Caillaud, Ahmed Bounfour Pages: 358 - 388 Abstract: If several surveys seem to indicate that firms no longer recognise patents as an effective defence mechanism, patent applications have been on a surge since the mid-1980s. Those same surveys argue that firms still apply for patents, but mostly for different motivations than protection, most of them related to strategic purposes. Previous works, both empirical and conceptual, already identified several of those strategies. However, their analysis remains limited by the use of survey data, while a substantial amount of information is freely available through patent data. Based on patent quality indicators from the literature, we aim to contribute to the innovation appropriation strategy literature by providing new empirical observation through the case study of the cosmetic sector. Our results reveal three specific patenting behaviours: patenting for image purposes, differences between specialists and generalist firms, and the strategy of a sectorial leader facing oligopolistic competitors. Keywords: analytical framework; appropriation strategies; strategical patenting; technological quality indicators; case study; patent data Citation: International Journal of Intellectual Property Management, Vol. 14, No. 4 (2024) pp. 358 - 388 PubDate: 2024-07-05T23:20:50-05:00 DOI: 10.1504/IJIPM.2024.139812 Issue No:Vol. 14, No. 4 (2024)

Authors:Clement Sternberger, Frederic Caillaud, Ahmed Bounfour Pages: 389 - 409 Abstract: The successful journeys of university students can be witnessed through qualifications, industry-relevant skills, and networking opportunities. A core element of this, now prevalent within universities, is the development of entrepreneurial attributes towards new ventures or start-ups. Universities wish to centralise the entrepreneurial process, through problem solving, creativity, and start-up activities. This results in the building of intellectual capital (IC) amongst students and staff, acknowledging intellectual property (IP) and intellectual property management (IPM), presenting added value. However, there is a lack of empirical investigation assessing the development of IPM-relevant skills within undergraduate courses. This paper explores a pathway of courses within a Scottish university, including leadership, acceleration, enterprise, and management topics with cohorts totalling over 350 students. Viewed through the educator perspective, multi-staged coded analysis realises the necessary points of IPM intervention, to orientate skills acquisition for IC. Subsequently, a model of factors and anticipated outcomes appreciates university-based exposure to IPM.
