Patent case 2020

In 2020, the prosecution prosecuted 12 163 people for infringement of intellectual property rights. What is the significance of protecting intellectual property rights? Looking back on 2020, in this whole year, the number of intellectual property crimes prosecuted by procuratorial organs was 1, 2 1, 63. I believe that what anyone sees is a very amazing number, and all this is because of the technical term intellectual property that we are not familiar with. Many people don't know enough about intellectual property rights, so many times intellectual property rights are not fully protected, especially in some profiteering markets. Plagiarism and imitation have become a common phenomenon, which also makes some people who know the law sigh.

So what is the importance of intellectual property rights and what is the significance of protecting intellectual property rights? Let's take a look.

First of all, the importance of intellectual property rights is reflected in the market. In today's society, a lot of technology or knowledge will be realized, which is of great significance to the market. As long as a product is granted a patent right, it means that it has an exclusive right in the market. No one can use it without the permission of the patentee, so the role of patent in the market is obvious. Patents can play a leading role in the market, especially in some international trade, which involves the interests of the country to a certain extent, so it is very important.

Secondly, patent application can prevent others from imitating and stealing. Once you apply for a patent, it means that your technology and products are only used within the permitted scope, so you can put an end to those imitations in the market to a certain extent. Because of the existence of patents, this kind of intellectual property has strong legal effect and is within the scope of legal protection.

Third, it can be sold and transferred as a commodity. Intellectual property is important because of its uniqueness and the ownership of the right holder, so it can be regarded as a commodity to a certain extent, and the right holder can sell intellectual property as a commodity to transform it into economic benefits.

Fourth, intellectual property rights mean a brand to a certain extent, and this brand is more like an orthodox symbol. Only when a commodity holds this logo can it be genuine, so that consumers can identify the commodity themselves and enhance brand awareness.

As the crystallization of the issuer's knowledge, intellectual property protection is not only to protect the labor achievements of workers, but also to maintain the enthusiasm of workers to a certain extent. Only by doing a good job in intellectual property protection can we stimulate the creative enthusiasm of society and develop the innovation trend of the whole society.
