AbstractIn the nowadays society, when the access to data and information is made easier to accomplish grace to the development of the information and telecommunication technologies, the issue to discuss is the use of knowledge with the purpose of creating the competitive advantage by producing knowledge. For the accomplishment of this purpose the actual situation has been analyzed to the level of European Union in what concerns the manner of valuing the intellectual property assets. The analysis revealed a model realized in the framework of a European research project. The conclusions of this scientific measure are pointed towards the optimism of the fact that, in time, each organization, no matter the size, the field of activity or the structure will be conscious of the assets that it owns and the way that they can be valued.

In the context of the educational system in Romania, analysis of teacher perceptions on outdoor education becomes a crucial factor, as the role of teachers in this process involves a change in methodology, approach, organizational fonns, student- teacher relationship, evaluation. The comparative study of outdoor education has continued the results of European research project "Outdoor Education: Authentic Learning in the context of landscapes" financed by European Union Comenius 2.1 action, developed by a partnership of educational institutions in five European countries: Austria, Czech Republic. Germany, Sweden and UK over three years. The overall objective of the analysis focused national and European perspectives on outdoor education to promote a uniform approach to Jhis form of education.

An increasing level of cooperation between public administrations nowadays on national, regional and local level requires methods to develop interoperable eGovernment solutions and leads to the necessity of an efficient evaluation and requirements engineering process that guides the establishment of systems and services used by public administrations in the European Union. In this chapter, the authors propose a framework to systematically gather and evaluate requirements for eGovernment in the large. The evaluation framework is designed to support requirements engineers to develop a suitable evaluation and requirements engineering process with respect to interoperable eGovernment solutions. The methodology is motivated and explained on the basis of a European research project.

This chapter provides a systematic multidisciplinary framework that defines the role of technology in leveraging IC across borders and between headquarters and subsidiaries. In reaching this conclusion, this chapter investigates the strategic importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in the management of Intellectual Capital (IC) within a Multinational Company (MNC) ecosystem. The chapter addresses the transubstantiation of MNC into boundaryless Global Knowledge-Based Organization (GKB-MNC) which ultimately propagates into Learning MNC (LMNC). The latter is a suggested MNC category that sustains competitive advantage through systemic adoption of “Knowledge Iterative Supply Network (KISN)” model proposed by the authors. The chapter suggests a new multinational ICT/IC governance strategy that handles the emerging complexities associated with modern intangible resource synthesis.

This chapter examines the recovery of unlawful and incompatible State aids, which is one of the cornerstones of free and undistorted competition in the European Union. The repayment of an aid declared unlawful and incompatible with the common market is of utmost importance, as it eliminates the distortion of competition caused by the competitive advantage afforded by the contested aid. In other words, by repaying an unlawful aid, the recipient forfeits the advantage it had enjoyed over its competitors on the market and therefore the previously existing situation is restored; it is common ground in this respect that this objective is attained once the aid in question—increased, where appropriate, by default interests—has been repaid by the recipient.

Set for success in the market, biotechnology could fulfil several objectives of the European Union, notably those relating to health, agriculture, the environment, technological development and general business competitiveness. However, several factors hinderthis knowledge-based technology from realizing its potential in Europe, as is measured by the usual indicators of competitiveness. The reasons are examined through a bottom-up approach, starting from the management of biotechnology research and moving towards business strategy and the role of consumers and regulators. Agricultural biotechnology in Europe is characterized by excellence in research but unattractiveness to investors.

During research projects, ethical protocols must be followed to ensure protection of the rights and intellectual property of Aboriginal peoples and researchers. In such a context, researchers collect and analyse data, write reports, present their findings at conferences, and publish them. Once the project is completed, what are the researchers’ rights to the data they have collected and the reports they have written? What are their duties? These questions are particularly relevant to those researchers who work with or for Aboriginal organisations. Before signing any contract or research agreement, researchers should make a point of retaining the right to use the data and reports for their own writing and publishing. We are beginning to realise the obvious: a story does not exist as something to be captured but as something to be passed on (Morrow and Schneider 1995: 2).

Empirical evidence demonstrates the value of intellectual property (IP) in creating economic growth, enhancing productivity and profitability, and increasing enterprise value. Research and Development (R&D) intensive industries, such as the life sciences, where patents are critical to competition, need an enabling environment to institutionalise innovation and IP generation and reward investments in IP. The US has approached IP strategically and created an IP infrastructure. Japan aims to develop into an "IP nation". China has an increasingly well-developed IP system. In contrast, the European Union (EU), which aims to become the world's leading knowledge-based economy, has a fragmented and expensive system of national patents. It lacks an environment which values investment in IP generation and management. Until recently, the EU enjoyed global competitive advantage in the life sciences, but this advantage has been lost. To regain this competitive advantage the EU must invest substantially in R&D, IP generation and commercialisation of these outputs.

AbstractThe intellectual property is a concept of whose content and materialization find themselves more and more in the attention of the researchers and practitioners. The increased number of the works that approach such an issue is the argument that supports the previous affirmation. The intellectual property assets attract the interest of all the organizations from the local to the global level. The important pillars of the European Strategy 2020 formulated by the European Commission are based on the capitalization of the innovation knowledge and of the intellectual property. The increased interest towards innovation and intangible assets is given to the awareness of their economic potential. This is the reason why the evaluation and the valuation of the intellectual property capitalization propose an evaluation methodology unanimously accepted. The aim of this article is to present a visualization and evaluation instrument for the intellectual property assets, realized in a framework of a European research project with 15 partners from countries that are situated in the South Eastern Europe.
