ADPIC
La política de innovación y el Acuerdo sobre los ADPIC
Se reconoce que un sistema de propiedad intelectual equilibrado y eficaz es un elemento fundamental de los marcos de política que respaldan la innovación. El papel de los derechos de propiedad intelectual en los esfuerzos encaminados a posibilitar y promover la innovación y facilitar la difusión de los resultados de actividades de innovación es objeto de amplios debates a nivel internacional y nacional, y de un atento examen en muchos países. En el Acuerdo sobre los Aspectos de los Derechos de Propiedad Intelectual relacionados con el Comercio (ADPIC), se reconoce la importancia del sistema de propiedad intelectual para la innovación, y se dispone que (artículo 7) "la protección y la observancia de los derechos de propiedad intelectual deberán contribuir a la promoción de la innovación tecnológica y a la transferencia y difusión de la tecnología".
Recent years have seen a series of discussions in the WTO TRIPS Council on different aspects of the interplay between the intellectual property system and the policy and practice of innovation, discussions which have covered a wide range of national experiences in developing and applying innovation policy and the related use of the intellectual property system as a means to promote such policies.
