情報爆発時代の知的財産保護　〜産学連携の推進に向けて〜

データベースな皆様「情報爆発時代の知的財産保護　〜産学連携の推進に向けて〜」なる特許庁からのご講演をご案内申し上げます。知的財産推進計画２００８も　ご紹介頂けます。喜連川優 ------------------------- 開催日 H20年08月06日開催場所東京大学本郷キャンパス工学部新2号館10階電気系会議室5 活動主体全体共通活動内容日時:2008年08月06日(水)13:30〜15:00 講演者: 特許庁知的財産活用企画調整官瀧内健夫氏 Title : 情報爆発時代の知的財産保護　〜産学連携の推進に向けて〜 Abstract: 資源に乏しい我が国が、今後も国際競争力を維持していくためには、知的財産を創造し、保護し、活用することが必要不可欠である。そのため、2002年2月の小泉総理大臣の施政方針演説を受けて、 "知的財産立国"の実現を国家戦略と位置づけ、様々な施策が展開されている。しかしながら、そもそも知的財産とは何であり、なぜ日本の国家戦略の鍵を握っているのか？本講演では、まずそのような素朴な疑問に答えることから始めたい。続けて、政府がどのような知財戦略を立て、どのような施策を展開しているかを説明することとする。さらには、"知的財産立国"の実現のために、大学の知財活動や産学連携がいかに重要であるか、そして、これらに関してどのような取組が行われているかをお話ししたい。一方、身近な話題として、研究者が留意すべき事項や研究者の知財環境改善のための取組についてもカバーする。
