Keywords: intellectual property, attestation, representation, legal status, patent attorneys The article is devoted to the study of the organizational and legal principles of attestation of candidates to patent attorneys in Ukraine. The article analyses formation and development of the institute of patent attorneys in the context of obtaining the legal status of a patent attorney and adducesperiodization of the stages of development of the attestation procedure from 1994 to2022. The possibility is substantiated of conditional distinguishing of four stages. The first stage of formation of legal bases of the institute of patent attorneys in Ukraine (1994−1996) is connected with creation of legal bases of functioning of the institute, definition of standard and requirements for obtaining the legal status of a patent attorney, introduction of procedure of attestation of candidates to patent attorneys, formation of community of patent attorneys. The second stage of the development of the institute of patent attorneys conditionallylasted from 1996 to 2016 and is conditionally characterized as a period of strong development of the patent attorneys community, in particular by regular attestation, the creation of the first professional association of patent attorneys and their active assistance in the development of intellectual property protection. The third stage, which has been ongoing from 2017 to the present, is actually characterized by the suspension of attestation and the block of the possibility of obtaining the legal status of a patent attorney. It has been established that the result of the reform of the system of legal protection of intellectual property, in particular the liquidation of the State Intellectual Property Service and the subordination of the relevant sphere of intellectual property to the competence of the Ministry of Economy, was the suspension of the attestation procedure. The exclusion from participation in the attestation procedure of the educationalinstitution, based on which attestation and transfer of the relevant functions to the subordinate enterprise took place, partially complicated the continuation of the attestation procedure. The expulsion from participation of the educational institution in the attestation procedure, because of which the attestation took place and transfer of the relevant functions to the subordinate enterprise, partially complicated the continuation of the attestation procedure. The attention has been drawn to the absence of the corresponding order of the Ministry of Economy on the approval of composition of the Attestation and the Appeal Commission. The authors have described the prospects for the development of the attestation procedure at the fourth stage, which can tentatively begin in 2022.

During the research, the author analysedthe main regulatory legal acts, based on which the legal regulation of collective managementactivities in the field of copyright and related rights was carried out. Considerableattention is paid to state bodies, institutions, enterprises and organizations,which in different periods of the development of the collective management systemwere responsible for the implementation of state policy in the specified area.Based on the data obtained during the analysis, the author singled out several mainstages of formation and development of the system of collective management in Ukraine:1) 1991–1999; 2) 1999–2011; 3) 2011–2018 years; 4) 2018 is the present. Within each ofthese periods, the peculiarities of collective management activities at the time, as well ascontrol over the implementation of such activities, were characterized. The author characterizesthe first period of the development of the specified system as the period of formationof such a system with the presence of duplication of powers to exercise collectivemanagement both in state institutions and in non-state organizations specially createdfor this purpose. The next period was marked by the separation and streamlining of thepowers of specially created collective management organizations to carry out rights managementactivities. The main achievement of the development of the collective managementsystem at the third stage was the creation of a separate state authority responsiblefor the implementation of state policy in the field of intellectual property, and in particularthe collective management of rights. The final stage of the path described in the articlewas the adoption of a special law aimed at regulating the field of collective managementof copyright and/or related rights.Based on all of the above, the author concluded that the conducted research willcontribute to the search for ways to further improve the system of collective managementin the field of copyright and/or related rights.

Keywords: artificial intelligence, intellectual property law, copyright, industrialproperty law, computer programs In Poland, as in other countries, there is an ongoing discussion on legal issues related to artificial intelligence. Formany people, there is no doubt that this intelligence should be protected. The problem rather narrows down to what conditions must be met for this protection. Some Polish scientists want to wait for solutions to be developed in the European Union.Poland, as a member state of the European Union, must respect the regulations emerging at the EU level. These regulations are only being planned. There is a certain risk in introducing new regulations in Poland without waiting for EU solutions.It could turn out that the laws adopted by Poland would be incompatible, not in compliance with European law.On the other hand, the software producers' communities are pushing for the introductionof relevant legislation now. They claim that this is needed to protect the funds that are being invested in artificial intelligence in Poland. In their view, without proper legislation, investors will reduce financial support for the developmentof artificial intelligence. In fact, however, the computer manufacturers' communityis not at all concerned with protecting 'mere' artificial intelligence. It is protected in Poland and can be provided by copyright law in particular. The most important issue in Poland already relates to the protection of creations generatedby artificial intelligence. This is in fact what the computer software development community and beyond cares most about.However, the protection of creations of artificial intelligence is not only about benefits, but also about threats. This will be discussed further in the article. Some lawyers are considering how to interpret the existing legislation so that the protectionof artificial intelligence creations is already possible.

Formany people, there is no doubt that this intelligence should be protected. The problem rather narrows down to what conditions must be met for this protection. Some Polish scientists want to wait for solutions to be developed in the European Union.Poland, as a member state of the European Union, must respect the regulations emerging at the EU level. These regulations are only being planned. There is a certain risk in introducing new regulations in Poland without waiting for EU solutions.It could turn out that the laws adopted by Poland would be incompatible, not in compliance with European law.On the other hand, the software producers' communities are pushing for the introductionof relevant legislation now. They claim that this is needed to protect the funds that are being invested in artificial intelligence in Poland. In their view, without proper legislation, investors will reduce financial support for the developmentof artificial intelligence. In fact, however, the computer manufacturers' communityis not at all concerned with protecting 'mere' artificial intelligence. It is protected in Poland and can be provided by copyright law in particular. The most important issue in Poland already relates to the protection of creations generatedby artificial intelligence. This is in fact what the computer software development community and beyond cares most about.However, the protection of creations of artificial intelligence is not only about benefits, but also about threats. This will be discussed further in the article. Some lawyers are considering how to interpret the existing legislation so that the protectionof artificial intelligence creations is already possible. They want to use existing theoretical constructs to justify this protection.","PeriodicalId":356184,"journal":{"name":"Theory and Practice of Intellectual Property","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128382944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Keywords: objects of intellectual property rights, trademark, utility model, copyrightand/or related rights, industrial design, unregistered industrial design, utilitymodel, commercial name The law of the fashion industry is a branch of law that regulates publicrelations arising in connection with activities related to products of the light andcosmetic industries. Creative products, such as fashion designs expressed in products,may be protected as intellectual property rights. A design solution embodied in a particularproduct may be protected by one or more intellectual property institutions.Design solutions in the field of fashion are not directly defined in the legislation,but their properties are reflected in the features of various objects of intellectual propertyrights. The design solution embodied in the product may include copyright, industrialdesign, utility model, trademark, geographical indication, trade name. However,if the product contains several objects of intellectual property rights at once, theauthor currently registers not all, but one/two due to the cost of registration (obtaininga certificate or patent). There is an example of a bag given in the article, whichshows how protection for an industrial design and a trademark can be received immediately.But there is no procedure for providing protection by design solutions.For comprehensive protection of a design solution in the system of cross-borderprotection of intellectual property rights, foremost it is necessary to introduce the conceptof «design solution» by law. Furthermore, since design solutions in the fashion industryare seasonal and short-term, the law should give «accelerated preferentialtreatment» to design solutions in the fashion industry. This means that, after a designdecision is registered, it is protected for one year. After one year, the designerspay the fees to officially register the intellectual property rights. This way, the designerscan understand the relevance and purchasing power of the goods and avoid payinghigh fees to register intellectual property rights.

Keywords: innovative and intellectual environment, subjects of intellectual propertyrights, innovative infrastructure, commercialization of property rights, marketfunctions In the article, the author examines the meaning of the concept of «innovative and intellectualenvironment» and, from a methodological standpoint, the economic andlegal model of the organizational and functional structure of the innovative and intellectualenvironment. This allows to disclose the content of the components of themodel, which are combined into functional connections, creating a productive field ofdirections of the transformation process in the production sphere of objects of intellectualproperty rights into innovative products for the purpose of commercialization ofintellectual property rights on the market of intellectual property, innovative technologiesand innovative products to profit-making purposes. It is noted that in theeconomic and legal literature today, there is no single approach to understanding theessence of the concept and content of the «innovative and intellectual environment».The concept of «innovative environment» is presented in a much broader sense. Froman economic and legal viewpoint, the use of the term «innovative and intellectual environment» is justified, where priority is given to innovation as the basis for the transformationof intellectual property rights in the production sphere of activity into aninnovative product, and also as the basis for the use of innovative technologies. Thereare considered from a theoretical and organizational perspective the target contentcomponents of the model, that include: the formation of human intellectual capital,which includes subjects of intellectual property rights; creation and organization ofinnovative infrastructure as a production sphere of activity; organizational combinationof innovative infrastructure with intermediaries for the commercialization of intellectual property rights, which are catalysts for the transformation of objects of intellectualproperty rights into innovative products; commercialization of intellectualproperty rights, which refers to the innovative and intellectual sphere of activity; purposeand functions of the market of intellectual property, the market of innovativetechnologies and the market of innovative products.
