LOCI: The Platform for Your IP Rights
Introduction
Ideas change the world. We have seen remarkable ideas do wonder. Everything that man has ever invented was just an idea first. Earlier, Most of us not cared about whose ideas was it. The discovery in science and technology has been part of human development story since ages. We have been dependent on the research and experiment done by scientists. All the inventions in every field are done by people who believed in their idea, no matter what the world thought. The scientist of any background is focused on creating something big and innovative to solve the problem in his chosen field. Due to rise in all these scientific and human progress, the need to register your idea, discovery, and invention became an important task. The commercialization of an idea is what we call a business.
An opportunity to earn through your discovery and research. Patenting your ideas and technology to realize its potential is the norm today. Big corporations in every sector fight it out to submit a large volume of patent application. It has become the biggest trade option for companies. There are various incidents of the tussle between two companies over a particular Patent. The patent can be defined as a license for a specific invention for a specified period. The current system of patenting is increasingly long and expensive which enables only rich corporations with deep pockets. Only the big companies can afford to win patents over a specific invention given the current nature of the system. Earlier in The USA, the patent technology worked under the law of First To Invent (FIA), which benefitted the original inventor of the specific idea or discovery. No matter who has the patent for the specific technology, if the original inventor proves his identity as the original creator, he was awarded the patent.
But, today, the patent technology has changed and it is regulated under the system First-Inventor-To-File (FITF under the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (AIA). In this system, the first inventor to file for a patent is awarded the patent, no matter who is the original inventor. If the original inventor cannot file a patent, he is no longer considered the inventor. This system favors the big companies who employ a Patent attorney to submit the patent application. They use every trick possible to register the patent for the Company.
The biggest problem is regarding the transparency and timing of the application. This is evident from the number of IP litigation cases in a country. In 2015, The USA has more than 5000 IP litigations cases. This tussle in the court has given birth to the "Patent Trolls", whose only aim is to earn by settling the patent Infringement cases outside the court. Another issue is of the protection Of IP rights, which means that just owning an IP right is not the end of the problem, but protecting it is also the problem of the owner.
These inefficiencies need to be solved to benefit the researchers, inventors, and thinkers, who work hard to create something unique and new in the world. We need a platform which removes all the weakness of the current system and presents an innovative Solution.
