DESCRIPTION:Many emerging and developing economies follow a mo
 del of maximising ownership and base their innovat
 ion policies on European and US approaches. Do the
 y have an opportunity to take a radical approach t
 o intellectual property and if so\, what could tha
 t look like and what would it mean for equitable a
 nd sustainable development?\n\n\nReadings and link
 s to the online papers and group annotations will 
 be distributed by email\, please contact synbio@he
 rmes.cam.ac.uk to sign up for the whole series or 
 individual sessions.\nIt is strongly recommended t
 hat papers are read in advance of the meetings.\n\
 nABOUT THE SERIES: The guiding question of our res
 earch group will be the extent to which open techn
 ologies result in equitable sharing of knowledge a
 nd cognitive or technology justice. 'Open' IP desc
 ribes a range of approaches to knowledge productio
 n\, distribution and consumption that allow more o
 r different actors to participate in producing and
  benefit from technologies. The global shift to kn
 owledge-based economies and increasingly rapid pac
 e of technological advancement means that the ques
 tion of how society deals with intellectual proper
 ty (IP) and structures institutions and communitie
 s to manage and disseminate knowledge is criticall
 y important to our future. Our choices will reflec
 t and shape our societal values\, practices and cu
 lture. Advocates of open and collaborative approac
 hes point to evidence of real social impact from b
 ut there is little published evidence and any effe
 cts are heavily context dependent. \n
