Unfair competition in the Arab world: a remedy completing IP limits?

Tue, 01/30/2024 - 19:00
Abstract
  • Some Arab countries incorporate unfair competition clauses within their IP laws, while others address these issues through separate legal frameworks, adding complexity to the legal landscape. The crucial distinction between clauses filling gaps in IP laws and the broader concept of unfair competition is vital for establishing a clear and comprehensive legal environment conducive to sustained innovation and equitable business practices.
  • Fortifying IP protection and safeguards against unfair competition in the Arab region can unlock the full potential of its innovation narrative. This approach fosters an environment where creativity thrives, securely anchored in legal principles. Viewing unfair competition rules not as replacements but as complementary measures enhances overall protection.
  • By aligning these rules with the ongoing wave of innovation, the Arab world can establish a framework that not only attracts talents but also ensures a harmonious balance between fostering creativity and safeguarding IP rights. This presents a promising avenue for the collective pursuit of progress and prosperity in the region.
