Cari tutti,

vi  informo  che l'EPO  ha  aperto  il forum  online per  discutere il
contenuto  del rapporto, redatto qualche  mese  fa, "Scenarios for the
Future":

  http://www.epo.org/focus/patent-system/scenarios-for-the-future.html

  Scenarios for the future

  In the course of a two-year project,  the EPO interviewed around 150
  key  players  - including critics  -   from the  fields  of science,
  business,  politics, ethics,  economics    and law, seeking    their
  opinions on how  intellectual property  and patenting  might  evolve
  over the next fifteen to twenty years.

  Four scenarios - relevant and  plausible stories about the future  -
  were developed in  a series of  workshops from their  answers. These
  scenarios, which  were created with  the  help of more than  40  EPO
  staff members, are intended as  tools to generate policy debates and
  were presented  to  the public for  the  first time at  the European
  Patent Forum.

  Each scenario examines the future from a different perspective:

  Market Rules (business) - The story of  consolidation in the face of
  a system that has been so successful that it is collapsing under its
  own weight

  Whose Game? (geopolitics)  - The story  of  conflict in the face  of
  changing geopolitical balances and competing ambitions

  Trees of Knowledge (society)  - The story of  erosion in the face of
  diminishing societal trust

  Blue Skies (technology) - The  story of differentiation in the  face
  of global systemic crises
