RFMLR Blog Series on Evolving Landscape of Intellectual Property Rights

The advancement in information technology, coupled with rising internet penetration has made copying, transferring, distributing, and manipulating intellectual property easier, cheaper, quicker, and harder to detect than ever before. With the existing laws around the world needing revision in the face of technological innovation, we stand at the cusp of another great revolution that will usher in the age of artificial intelligence.

As AI steadily becomes capable of being as creative as the human mind and more people continue to breach IP laws, policymakers must adapt to the rapid pace of technological development while striking a fair balance between the rights of IP owners and the rights of the public.

The blog series aims to encourage an insightful discourse on the evolving legal landscape surrounding intellectual property rights by inviting submissions from legal academicians, practitioners, lawyers, legal experts, and students.

The Editorial Board invites blog submissions from legal practitioners, professionals, academicians, and law students.
