(MENAFN- Dubai PR Network) Statement by H.E. Ahmad Saeed bin Meshar Al Muhairi
SLC Secretary General on World Intellectual Property Day

25 April 2024:“Ensuring the protection of intellectual property is a crucial factor in
fostering innovation, inspiring human creativity, advancing research and development,
and bolstering the foundations of a knowledge-based economy. In this context, World
Intellectual Property Day serves as a significant occasion to emphasise the importance
of providing all means of support and motivation to innovators and creators, foremost of
which is protection against infringements upon their intellectual property rights.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) stands as a leading example of adopting an effective
approach to safeguarding intellectual property rights. The UAE is committed to creating
a nurturing environment for innovation and creativity, backed by robust legal and
legislative frameworks that are inclusive, agile, and progressive. The UAE's intellectual
property legislation is a testament to its commitment to protecting intellectual property
and empowering innovation. This legislation ensures comprehensive protection of all
rights related to intellectual property, including Industrial Property Rights, Copyrights
and Neighbouring Rights, and Trademarks; and plays a crucial role in cultivating a
culture of intellectual property protection.

On this occasion, the Supreme Legislation Committee in the Emirate of Dubai (SLC)
reaffirms its dedication and resolve to continue contributing to the enhancement and
reinforcement of a legislative ecosystem conducive to intellectual property protection in
the UAE, and to promoting the ambitious national vision for a business community
driven by intellectual creativity and scientific innovation.”
