This book examines the role that intellectual property plays in fostering innovation within knowledge societies, with a particular focus on the role of emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence tools.

Creativity and the generation of new knowledge across the broad spectrum of intellectual property are essential sources of growth for knowledge societies. This includes the major areas of copyright, inventions and patents, trademarks and geographical indications. This book acknowledges the societal and cultural character of knowledge societies, discussing how Intellectual Property (IP) Law plays a pivotal role in safeguarding innovation, thereby fostering evolution. As emerging technologies and artificial intelligence redefine the landscape, the book identifies both new challenges and opportunities in enhancing innovation prowess and nurturing knowledge societies. Suggesting regulations which prioritise copyright, trademarks and patents as fundamental instruments in international commerce, the book presents a framework for IP Law through which knowledge societies can thrive.

The book will appeal to researchers in the field of Intellectual Property Law, international law, business law and emerging technologies such as AI.

Research in the area of intellectual property (IP) is increasingly relevant to the rapidly growing artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics industries, affecting the legal, business, manufacturing, and healthcare sectors. This contributed volume aims to develop our understanding of the legal and ethical challenges posed by artificial intelligence and robotics technologies and the appropriate intellectual property based legal and regulatory responses. It provides a philosophical and legal framework for considering concepts and principles that relate to the development and use of such technologies at the international, regional, and national levels.

The legal discourse in IP concerns the ever-growing AI sector and how businesses can protect their IP and incorporate AI. Moral sentiments often take a back seat to market sentiments, even in shaping the direction of ethical business strategy. This anomaly persists despite growing interest in ethics and IP. Taking an interdisciplinary and diverse perspective, this book enriches the evolving definition and scope of IP literature by focusing on actors, products and regulation that shape the business sector. Considering the gap between theory and practice, this book bridges academic and professional knowledge in unpacking legal, ethical and governance issues in the intellectual property industry.

In an effort to include as many viewpoints as possible, contributions have been gathered from diverse fields, including business, ethics, governance, law, philosophy and technology studies. This book will appeal to academics in the field of intellectual property, business ethics, AI, emerging technologies and strategic innovation, as well as practitioners and policy makers.

This book examines the notion and understanding of innovation and knowledge societies as they particularly apply to the Gulf states and their broad range of communities. Key to this examination will be the role that intellectual property - its promotion and protection – plays in fostering both innovation and the knowledge society. In brief, innovation, knowledge, society, emerging technology, economic growth and intellectual property are intertwined and inseparable. Unique to the GCC, is the constitutional significance of Islamic Law and the book discusses intellectual property growth in line with economic developments in the region and reflects on Islamic Finance Law.
