The global value of fake goods hit an estimated $653bn in 2014 – with drugs, electronics and software accounting for the most commonly counterfeited products. But SMEs are often ignorant of their intellectual property (IP) rights and only16% of SME owners place a specific monetary value on the IP associated with their brands, logos, websites and product designs. What are the implications of this?

Mobile World Congress Shanghai 2017 special report for SmartAirConDaniel Chun
SmartAirCon is a new IoT product strategy for Mobile Operators and MVNOs in the Asia region.
There is no doubt the hottest topic being debated in climate policy in 2017 is how the US Government had decided to leave the Paris Climate Accord - COP21 and what form of sustainable energy and technology innovations could really help various city administrators to reduce the use of electricity and to reduce the overall carbon footprint. At the 2016 GSMA Global Device Summit - MWCS16, our company’s Mr. Daniel Chun had presented how mobile operators and MVNOs could extend their market reach in controlling the home electronics and be involved in air conditioning around the world by way of introducing a new form of Smart IoT device that could enhance the user experience in monitoring and controlling the air-conditioners in homes and offices; and benefit from a new disruptive business model to reduce churn and to increase ARPU.

The Five Biggest Retail Tech Trends In 2022Bernard Marr
Retail companies have seen huge challenges and transformations over the past few years while digitization and the adoption of technology innovations have been accelerated. Here we look at the five biggest tech trends in the retail industry.
The security challenge
Trust will become the byword of the mobile era. Consumers will need to trust that their data and
information is being kept securely when using mobile devices and services, while corporations will
need to trust that their service providers, technology environments and employees are adhering to
their security protocols.
As a result, demand for mobile security products and solutions is quickly picking up steam. Corporations –
keen to unleash the productive benefits of mobile without taking on additional risk – are hungry for
effective solutions, particularly those that can be outsourced or moved into the cloud.
Consumers have also proven willing to pay a premium for enhanced security and privacy on their
mobile devices opening up a new market of opportunity for those that can successfully commercialize
new consumer security solutions.
Internet of Things (IoT) - We Are at the Tip of An IcebergDr. Mazlan Abbas
You are likely benefitting from The Internet of Things (IoT) today, whether or not you’re familiar with the term. If your phone automatically connects to your car radio, or if you have a smartwatch counting your steps, congratulations! You have adopted one small piece of a very large IoT pie, even if you haven't adopted the name yet.
IoT may sound like a business buzzword, but in reality, it’s a real technological revolution that will impact everything we do. It's the next IT Tsunami of new possibility that is destined to change the face of technology, as we know it. IoT is the interconnectivity between things using wireless communication technology (each with their own unique identifiers) to connect objects, locations, animals, or people to the Internet, thus allowing for the direct transmission of and seamless sharing of data.
IoT represents a massive wave of technical innovation. Highly valuable companies will be built and new ecosystems will emerge from bridging the offline world with the online into one gigantic new network. Our limited understanding of the possibilities hinders our ability to see future applications for any new technology. Mainstream adoption of desktop computers and the Internet didn’t take hold until they became affordable and usable. When that occurred, fantastic and creative new innovation ensued. We are on the cusp of that tipping point with the Internet of Things.
IoT matters because it will create new industries, new companies, new jobs, and new economic growth. It will transform existing segments of our economy: retail, farming, industrial, logistics, cities, and the environment. It will turn your smartphone into the command center for the both digital and physical objects in your life. You will live and work smarter, not harder – and what we are seeing now is only the tip of the iceberg.

Análise de Negócios a favor da produtividade e do potencial humano - GUDAY 20...Carlos Giovani Rodrigues
Carlos Giovani Rodrigues, do Grupo de Usuários de Análise de Negócios (GUAN), apresentou no GUDay a visão dos analistas de negócios da computação positiva. Ele partiu de uma linha do tempo que tem como marco a revolução digital, iniciada em 2010, e a chamada indústria 4.0, que permite a todos estarem conectados.
Mais recentemente, a economia compartilhada vem mostrando que “o acesso está triunfando sobre a propriedade”, disse Carlos, que destacou também a convergência de dispositivos. Tudo isso, segundo ele, são inovações que causam um impacto de disrupção no mercado e as empresas que não se adaptarem ou agirem rapidamente poderão perder seu espaço. Carlos apresentou exemplos e cases do que chamou de empresas exponenciais, que estão visualizando as mudanças e atuando. “A diferença entre as empresas tradicionais e as exponenciais está na maior autonomia e na experimentação”, afirmou.

Intellectual Property Strategy

Intellectual Property Strategy - Where do I
start?
Regardless of the nature of your business, you will be using and creating intellectual property all the
time. This article helps you to decide where intellectual property should be on your list of priorities. It
also aims to help you develop a plan for your intellectual property by providing information about the
processes, time and costs involved in protecting intellectual property rights.
What is intellectual property?
Intellectual property is a collection of intangible property which can be protected by law. Intellectual
property rights entitle you to stop others from using your intellectual property. These rights can be
assigned from one owner to another, licensed and used as security for borrowing.
Who is entitled to intellectual property rights?
The first owner of the intellectual property rights in a work is usually the creator of the work. There is a
key exception to this general rule in that intellectual property rights in works created in the course of
employment usually belong to the employer.
How can I tell what intellectual property is important to my business?
Are inventions important to your business? See PATENTS
Are trade secrets or other confidential information (e.g. customer lists) important to your
business? See CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
Do you hope to draw in business by developing a brand or other distinctive “get-up”? See
TRADE MARKS
Will your company create valuable works such as software, documents, music, broadcast
or website content? See COPYRIGHT AND DATABASE RIGHTS
Is the appearance of your product important, for example, because it is a fashion item or
interior design piece? See DESIGNS
What do I have to do to protect my intellectual property?
Some rights arise automatically on creation of the work: these are copyright, database right, design
right, rights in passing off (see trade marks) and some rights in confidential information. Other rights
can only be obtained by application to the Intellectual Property Office (in the UK). Patents, registered
trade marks and registered designs fall into this category. Intellectual property rights are national
rights; you must ensure that your registrations cover all the countries where you want protection.
Intellectual Property Strategy
2
Intellectual Property - Patents
A patent is available to protect certain inventions. Some countries (excluding the UK) have a
secondary protection system of “utility models” for minor inventions (primarily mechanical
innovations). Whilst a patent application must disclose the invention fully, there is often secret know-
how associated with the invention, for example, how to optimise production of a patented product.
This know-how can be protected as confidential information.

FFIWS is a maker space in Porthmadog with laser cutters, 3D printers and all sorts of other impressive kits. As my visit has had to be cancelled I have decided to deliver my presentation online. If there is still enough interest in Porthmadog (or anywhere else in the world for that matter) I will give a fee webinar on 15 April 2020 on IP Law for Makers, The IP law in question will be the law of Wales and England which will not be exactly the same elsewhere but most of the presentation should be relevant more or less anywhere.

Copyrights protect original works of authorship, such as literature, music, artistic works, and computer software. As the holder of a copyright, you have the exclusive right to reproduce, adapt, and distribute the work. A copyright exists from the moment the work is created, so registration is voluntary.
However, registered works may be eligible for statutory damages and attorney’s fees in a copyright infringement suit, so it is recommended that you register at your local Copyright Office. You can register your copyright online by completing an application, and sending in a non-returnable copy of your work.

Decades of economic growth and development along with better governance and nutrition-specific programmes had lifted hundreds of millions of people in Asia out of poverty, as well as starvation and malnutrition. However, due to the uneven development, while a large segment of Asian's population had changed their eating habits to over-nutrition diets and worrying about lifestyle diseases like diabetes, cancer and heart diseases, there are still some countries and regions suffering from lack of nutrition. For example, childhood malnutrition and stunting is still prevalent in South Asia, one Indian survey found that 21% of children suffer wasting, and a further 7.5% of children suffer it severely.

Digital platforms and services stimulate economic growth and development. Countries are looking to the “internet economy” to provide new market opportunities and help achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as promoting economic growth and sustainable industralisation, a process often relying on an increase in online access rates and smartphone penetration.

Internet connectivity has proven to be one of the most profound enablers of social change and economic growth of our time. Beginning with fixed narrowband internet connections and moving through successive generations of increasingly pervasive and powerful networks, connectivity has come to underpin our working and personal lives, empowering businesses to operate more efficiently and with wider reach. In turn, connectivity has sparked and fuelled countless new industries, products and services that are coming to define our modern age. Connectivity has proven to be a vital ingredient for business success.
This report examines the burden of lung cancer in Latin America and how well countries in the region are addressing the challenge.

In the cyber world, many are attacked but not all are victims. Some organisations emerge stronger. The most cyber-resilient organisations can respond to an incident, fix the vulnerabilities and apply the lessons to strategies for the future. A key element of their resilience is governance, a task that falls to the board of directors.
To learn more about the challenges of governing a cyber-resilient organisation, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) conducted a global survey, sponsored by Willis Towers Watson, of 452 large-company board members, C-suite executives and directors with responsibility for cyber-resilience.
Among the findings:
-In the past year, a third of the companies surveyed experienced a serious cyber-incident — one that disrupted operations, impaired financials and damaged reputations — and most placed high odds on another one in the next 12 months.
-Many companies lack confidence in their ability to source talent and develop a cyber-savvy workforce.
-Executives cite the size of the financial and reputational risk as the most important reason for board oversight.
Artificial intelligence (AI) will profoundly affect the ways in which businesses and governments engage with consumers and citizens alike. From advances in genetic diagnostics to industrial automation, these widespread changes will have significant economic, social and civic implications. As such, Intelligent Economies explores the transformative potential of AI on markets and societies across the developed and developing worlds.
This report, developed by The Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Microsoft, draws on a survey of more than 400 senior executives working in various industries, including financial services, healthcare and life sciences, manufacturing,
retail and the public sector. Survey respondents operate in eight markets: France, Germany, Mexico, Poland, South Africa, Thailand, the UK and the US.
As businesses generate and manage vast amounts of data, companies have more opportunities to gather data, incorporate insights into business strategy and continuously expand access to data across the organisation. Doing so effectively—leveraging data for strategic objectives—is often easier said
than done, however. This report, Transforming data into action: the business outlook for data governance, explores the business contributions of data governance at organisations globally and across industries, the challenges faced in creating useful data governance policies and the opportunities to improve such programmes.
It wasn’t long ago that a work meeting meant gathering around a table to discuss an agenda. These days you may be using Slack, Hangouts or other digital collaboration platforms that blend messaging with video and allow real-time editing of
documents. Even with these tools, communication at work can still break down, potentially endangering careers, creating stressful work environments and slowing growth.
A survey from The Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Lucidchart reveals some of the perceived causes and effects of these communication breakdowns. The survey, conducted from November 2017 to January 2018, included 403 senior executives, managers and junior staff at US companies divided equally and from companies with annual revenue of less than
US$10m, between US$10m and US$1bn and more than US$1bn. The survey research provides insights about what employees see as the biggest barriers to workplace communication, the causes of the barriers and their impact on work life. Complete survey results are included at the end of
this report.
Successful young entrepreneurial innovators have achieved something akin to rockstar status. They grace magazine covers and keynote global conferences, inspiring burgeoning

Collectively, young entrepreneurs are innovative by nature and their thinking is an important source of growth and job creation across the world. Today, with digital tools in hand, leaders are better positioned to expand their businesses across borders, seize niche opportunities and shape the global economic future.
Yet, most of today’s young entrepreneurs want more than status and a global corporate footprint. Their ideas of success arise from powerful social, political and economic convictions.
To find out what really makes young innovators tick, The Economist Intelligence Unit, sponsored by FedEx, surveyed more than 500 of these young entrepreneurs around the globe about their motivations, ideals and priorities. Our survey respondents were between 25 and 50 years of age and all founders, owners or partners of firms with fewer than 500 employees. They are living in North America, Europe, Middle
East, India and Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. We surveyed them on matters of globalization, technology and social values.
We then compared their views with a similar survey of the general public in the same regions. Side by side, these surveys enabled us to differentiate the outlooks of today’s young and innovative entrepreneurs.
Our surveys identified four key mindsets that guide young entrepreneurs: leading with passion; thinking globally; embracing social responsibility; and banking on connectivity. This report explores the similarities and divergences of today’s young entrepreneurs and the general public. It seeks insights into the elements of the business environment that matter most to entrepreneurs, as well as their views on a variety of issues including free trade and social responsibility.
Education systems across the world are grappling with the challenge of preparing their students for the rapid changes they will experience during their lifetimes. To this end, schools have a critical role in equipping students with the requisite skills and
competencies that will be in demand, particularly as digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly transform businesses and influence economies. In this report, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) discusses the results of a study that explores how to best prepare primary and
secondary school (referred to in this report as “K-12”) students for the 21st century workplace (“the modern workplace”), where
a mix of hard and soft skills are crucial for success. The research, sponsored by Google for Education, draws on a survey of 1,200 educators in 16 countries.1 It looks at the
strategies most effective in developing 21st century skills and how technology can support such efforts.

Corporate treasury is now a top target for cyber-criminals. Treasury’s trove of personal and corporate data, its authority to make payments and move large amounts of cash quickly, and its often complicated structure make it an appealing choice for discerning fraudsters.

In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
