We are pleased to present the latest edition of CRA’s IP Literature Watch. This issue contains pieces on antitrust & IP, licensing, litigation, innovation, law and policy, copyright, and trade.
Some highlights from the issue:
- An article that examines the field of trademark law and contemplates the potential commercial benefits of infringement—to the holder of the infringed-on mark;
- A paper that proposes a parsimonious framework to explain conflicting evidence of R&D investments that both increase and decrease firm risk, which validates the long-standing assumption that R&D increases firm risk and further demonstrates that the risk of innovation evolves from idiosyncratic to systematic risk over time;
- A working paper examining the concept of creativity from a multidisciplinary perspective in order to consider some ways in which arguments that AI generated artifacts are eligible for IP protection are insufficient, accounting for the enriched understanding of the creativity requirement underlying IP laws.
