Why Collaboration (and Building Industry Partnerships) is Crucial for the Fight Against IP Piracy!

Published On: October 8, 2023

In the battle against IP piracy, collaboration has emerged as a vital weapon, cutting across industries and jurisdictions. Recognizing the far-reaching impact of piracy and the urgency to address this complex issue, industry stakeholders are joining hands to strengthen their collective efforts.

An essential aspect of combating IP piracy lies in collaborating with government authorities. Establishing effective channels of communication and cooperation with law enforcement agencies paves the way for a more coordinated approach. For instance, following the adoption of landmark EU copyright rules, Google is to pay more than 300 publishers in the EU for their news. Likewise, Turkey is trying to implement a similar approach by starting negotiations with Google to protect the rights of the copyright owners.

So, what strategies should be pursued in this joint effort against IP piracy? One crucial element involves information sharing and the exchange of best practices. By creating platforms for intelligence sharing, where piracy trends and emerging threats are shared, stakeholders can mount a more proactive response.
Equally powerful are coordinated enforcement actions. Turkey needs to cooperate more with organisations like Intellectual property Crime Coordinated Coalition, funded by European Intellectual Property Office, providing operational and technical support to the competent authorities. On a higher level, collaborating on joint investigations and enforcement operations enables a more precise identification and targeting of infringing entities. Pooling resources and expertise enhance the efficiency and impact of enforcement actions, acting as a deterrent to potential infringers.
Technology and innovation have a crucial role to play in the fight against IP piracy, making collaborative efforts in this domain all the more essential. By collectively focusing on the development of technological solutions to detect and prevent piracy, industry partners can stay one step ahead of infringers.
Fostering public awareness and education campaigns is another critical facet for nurturing a culture of respect for intellectual property. Currently, MEDIT is undertaking a project to raise awareness about the detrimental effects of piracy and promote the legal consumption of creative content.

Success stories and case studies act as powerful motivators, highlighting the impact of collaboration in combating IP piracy. Showcasing examples of successful collaborations between industry players, enforcement agencies, and legal professionals serve to inspire further joint efforts.

Collaboration brings both benefits and challenges as stakeholders with diverse interests work to align goals. By identifying common challenges and actively pursuing solutions, collaborative efforts can overcome obstacles and adapt to the evolving piracy landscape. With MEDIT, stakeholders pool resources and implement coordinated strategies to protect intellectual property rights, ensuring a sustainable future for creativity and innovation while building a stronger defence against IP piracy to safeguard the rights of creators and rights holders.
