We will be welcoming Dr. Gernot Klotz who is coming all the way from Europe to provide us with his insights on Public-Private Cooperation as a Driver to Create New Innovation Opportunities. Europe is excellent in creating knowledge and intellectual property. It is however weak vis-a-vis it´s global competitors in turning this knowledge into value within the increasingly short time-span. A short presentation will be given on how Europe is responding to this paradox with innovative initiatives and strategic approaches on research and innovation.

Counterfeits: a global threat needs global answers. The WTO estimates the share of counterfeits at the total global trade volume of 5% to 7%. 80% of the profits of counterfeited exports from China is created outside the country. An estimated 750,000 labor in the global automotive industry alone is lost due to counterfeiting. There are many different methods for corporations to fight against trade mark infringements, but essential is an overall strategy with all involved stakeholders participating, addressing authorities with key messages, alerting the employees and much more.
