The Influence of Emerging Technologies on Intellectual Property Law
 
It is with great anticipation that we extend this call for papers for the 3rd Tricontinental Conference on Intellectual Property (IP) Law, scheduled to convene on December 12 at the University of Malta. This year, we shall embark on an expedition into the labyrinthine intersections of emerging technologies and the ever-evolving contours of IP law. We invite submissions from academics, researchers, and practitioners from all corners of the globe, to partake in this scholarly congregation that promises to challenge and expand the intellectual horizons of our field.
 
Conference Focus
 
In the spirit of scholarly inquiry and intellectual rigour, this year’s conference will foreground the implications of emerging technological paradigms on IP rights, with a particular emphasis on blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI). These technologies, far from mere tools, are harbingers of paradigmatic shifts that compel a re-examination of the very foundations upon which the edifice of IP law is constructed.
 
Blockchain Technology and IP Law
 
Blockchain has metamorphosed our conceptualisation of digital assets. It heralds a new epoch in which IP rights, once bound by the limitations of traditional frameworks, can be dynamically recorded and enforced with transparency and immutability. This technological vanguard redefines the creation of secondary markets, cultural heritage, and digital spaces wherein IP-protected assets can be traded or accessed with a newfound fluidity. The ramifications for registered rights are also particularly profound, as blockchain promises to elevate registration and eradicate the spectres of counterfeiting and infringement through its incorruptible chains of custody.
 
Artificial Intelligence and IP Law
 
The advent of AI, with its capacity for generating works with amazing speed and in large volumes, strikes at the very heart of conventional doctrines of creativity and authorship. It challenges us to rethink the ontological and epistemological underpinnings of IP law. In addition, as AI systems voraciously consume vast corpuses of data for training, they impinge upon existing IP rights, particularly those pertaining to copyright and databases. They also test the limits of the current system of exceptions and limitations during the development phase of AI models and systems. The complex challenges AI poses require careful and detailed analysis to ensure that the crucial balance between fostering innovation and protecting IP rights is maintained.

Llega la IV edición de Campus América, del 9 al 18 de octubre, un espacio de valoración e impulso de las acciones de internacionalización de la Universidad de La Laguna con el continente americano, este año con Ecuador como país invitado.

La actividad es un seminario de naturaleza híbrida -presencial y telemática- en la que se abordará el dilema de la protección del patrimonio inmaterial, con especial atención a los pueblos originarios de América y a su función como custodios de los «bienes-idea» que componen aquél, en tanto que reflejos de una forma de vida.
