In the land of ‘Jugaad’, where everyone is able to find a frugal fix toany problem, innovation is still dismal. Innovation in India is dismal not because of the lack of grey matter, but because India is systemically failing its inventors – firstly, through an education system that focuses...

What types of intellectual property (IP) rights can be vested in the components of a scalable quantum computer? Are there sufficient market-set innovation incentives for the development and dissemination of quantum software and hardware structures? Or is there a need for open source ecosystems,...

When commentators discuss innovation’s externalities, they often classify them into one of two categories. On the positive externalities, or “spillovers” side, legal and economics scholars often speak of the benefits innovation confers on other innovators. Future innovators profit from...

Leadership behaviors of wildland firefighting teams engaged in firefighting activities are “shared” despite the existence of a highly bureaucratic and hierarchical organizational structure. This paradoxical type of leadership appears to be based on individual perceptions of the effectiveness...

Exporting values into society through technologyChina’s relentless advance in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and quantum computing has engendered a significant amount of anxiety about the future of America’s technological supremacy. The resulting debate centres around the impact of China’s...

What is quantum technology?Quantum technology is founded on general principles of quantum mechanics and combines the counterintuitive physics of the very small with engineering. Particles and energy at the smallest scale do not follow the same rules as the objects we can detect around us in our...

This chapter connects the dots between intellectual property and data, data ownership, and data protection. It also provides Artificial Intelligence (AI) & data policy and regulatory recommendations to the EU legislature. Data sharing is a prerequisite for a successful transatlantic AI...

People around the globe are concerned about safety issues encircling the accelerated introduction of corona vaccines. In this article, we discuss the regulatory safeguards for fast-track market authorization of vaccines in Europe. In addition, we explain how the transmission of European Union...

The behavior of nature at the smallest scale can be strange and counterintuitive. In addition to unique physical characteristics, quantum technology has many legal aspects. In this article, we first explain what quantum technology entails. Next, we discuss implementation and areas of...

In this article we investigate the innovation-sales growth nexus in Europe. We use data from European Innovation Scoreboard of the European Commission in the period 2000-2019 for 36 countries. Data are analyzed using Panel Data with Random Effects, Fixed Effects, Dynamic Panel at 1 Stage, Pooled...
