This paper examines the relationship between enforcement of intellectual property rights and growth of the creative economy. Intellectual property based creative industries highly contribute towards national economy through trade, value addition, and tax revenues. Size of the global creative economy has almost doubled during 2015 leading it to the figure of $509 billion that was $205 billion during year 2002. It is worth noting that major player in global volume of creative economy are South Asian countries such as China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, India, and Taiwan. Major creative industries include software, pharmaceutical, music, cinema, fashion, design, art, culture, photography, publishing, and other related creative works. Creative industries need support of effective enforcement from intellectual property rights to pay incentive to a creator for its investment of expertise, labour, and finances. In absence of effective intellectual property enforcement and violation of intellectual property rights, innovation may go slow that affects growth of the creative economy. This research highlights potentials of growth of the creative economies in Pakistan in terms of intellectual property rights.

Creative industries have been seen to become increasingly important to economic well-being, with proponents suggesting that "human creativity is the ultimate economic resource," and that “the industries of the twenty-first century will depend increasingly on the generation of knowledge through creativity and innovation.” The term creative industries, refers to a range of economic activities which are concerned with the generation or exploitation of knowledge and information. Development of creative industries will contribute to the awareness and protection of intellectual property rights and copyrights in the creative industry, in order to meet the WTO’s requirements on intellectual property rights. Government support for creative industries will help create a healthy competitive environment for businesses in the industry. It is important for Vietnam’s businesses to select a proper orientation and gain a suitable position in the global creative economy. The creative service sectors of great strength in Vietnam, which are also in need of investment are: design, art, education, tourism, performing arts, fashion, handicraft, culture, foods, and others. Additionally, empirical investigations in the present study reveal that creative industry indicators have a positive and significant influence on the economy and financial sectors. This study’s findings are highly recommended to government officials, economists, and anyone else working to make strategic decisions to achieve better economic results.

The creative economy is driven by the transfer of property; tradable property is the ‘product’ of the creative industries. The chapter explores how intellectual property (IP)/intellectual property rights (IPR) function to constitute creative work as a market object that can be disentangled and sold. The chapter deals first with the performative role of law in constructing market objects. We examine how law, with its focus on authorship and originality, embodies a particular conception of solitary artistic creation, inherited from nineteenth-century Romantic aesthetics; at the same time, the law also mandates property rights as a means of constituting a market object, and these property rights necessitate a creator to whom they can attach. Both aspects seem highly artificial in view of the collaborative and collective processes that produce creative work and it becomes clear that creative producers have to manage this multifaceted, liminal object in the shape of the IP/IPR nexus.

AbstractWe study the role of the strength of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) law protection and enforcement in influencing horizontal productivity spillovers from inward FDI to domestic firms in host countries. While most WTO countries adopted strong IPR legislation due to exogenous pressure resulting from the signing of the Trade-Related Aspects of IPR (TRIPS) agreement, public IPR enforcement strength continues to vary significantly between countries. We meta-analyse 49 studies and find that public IPR enforcement strength has a direct positive effect on horizontal productivity spillovers from inward FDI to domestic firms and a negative moderating effect on the relationship between IPR law protection strength and horizontal productivity spillovers from inward FDI to domestic firms.

The relationship between competition policy and intellectual property has been largely analyzed by the specialized literature. Nonetheless, the competitive impact of the enforcement of intellectual property rights in aftermarkets is still a challenging field of study. This article discusses the interface between intellectual property and competition in light of a case concerning the Brazilian automobile aftermarket.

All books in this flagship series contain carefully selected substantial extracts from key cases, legislation, and academic debate, providing able students with a stand-alone resource. This chapter examines some of the different types of intellectual property rights (IPRs) before outlining the relationship between intellectual property and both EU competition law and the EU free movement rules. It focuses, however, on IP licensing agreements and their treatment under Article 101. The chapter is organized as follows. Section 3 traces the development of EU competition policy to IP licensing agreements. Sections 4 and 5 examine the current Technology Transfer Block Exemption, Regulation 772/2004 (TTBER) and the Guidelines in detail (noting where significant changes might occur in 2014). Sections 6, 7, and 8 deal with trade mark licences, trade mark delimitation agreements, and copyright (other than software) licences not covered by the TTBER and Guidelines. Section 9 outlines issues arising in cases involving IPRs under Article 102, while Section 10 concludes.

Patent pools do not correct all problems associated with patent thickets. In this respect, patent pools might not stop the outsider problem from striking pools. Moreover, patent pools can be expensive to negotiate, can exclude patent holders with smaller numbers of patents or enable a group of major players to form a cartel that excludes new competitors. For all the above reasons, patent pools are subject to regulatory clearance because they could result in a monopoly. The aim of this article is to present the relationship between patents and competition in a broad context.
