9/29/24, 1:11 PM PRESSR: UAE highlights its efforts to enhance legislative framework for IP rights protection — TradingView News
H.E. Al Muaini reviewed the UAE's efforts to develop a robust legislative
environment for IP in accordance with international best practices, which
include the amendment of three laws, namely, the regulation and
protection of industrial property rights, trademarks, and copyright and
adjacent rights. These efforts have contributed to advancing the UAE’s
intellectual property environment and enhancing the country’s overall
innovation and R&D landscape. These measures ensure comprehensive
brand and authors’ rights protection and create opportunities and
potential to attract entrepreneurial and innovative ventures and
investment from around the world in new economy sectors.
The Assistant Undersecretary highlighted the importance of intellectual
property in building a prosperous future and supporting the achievement of
sustainable development goals in several critical areas including clean
technology and health and education. He emphasized the need for
intellectual property in keeping pace with rapid technological
developments and bridging the digital gap, stimulating innovation and
encouraging investment in advanced technologies.
Nearly 450 attendees participated in the third High-level Belt and Road
Conference on Intellectual Property, including industry officials,
professionals, researchers and representatives of relevant international
organizations. The participants called for joint efforts to strengthen IP
protection, promote mutual recognition and protect geographical
indicators more broadly, enhance intellectual property protection in data
and e-commerce, and provide an enabling environment for innovation.
