TGIF for Religion and Intellectual Property

On July 7, 2009, Pope Benedict XVI published his third encyclical letter titled "Caritas in veritate" (Charity in Truth) which, among other things, states that "On the part of rich countries there is excessive zeal for protecting knowledge through an unduly rigid assertion of the right to intellectual property, especially in the field of health care.  At the same time, in some poor countries, cultural models and social norms of behaviour persist which hinder the process of development." 
 
In response, the Intellectual Property Owners Association announced that it and others "are working to educate on the incentives that IP rights provide for advancing knowledge and creating jobs."
 
Good luck in bringing some of that same religious fervor to your organization.

Amen to that!
Although the incentives that IP rights provide act to foster innovation, I would voice a little of the concern the 'Holy Father' has on how vital technologies in the field of medicine and energy take its own dear time to reach the ones in need of it viz mankind & the planet. After all, Greed is still one of the Cardinal sins.

Just to put a note; in case you or your readers are interested to know more on green/alternate/clean energy with relevance to IP - here's a good report on Solar Photovoltaic Cells from a Market & IP Perspective in the Atlanta Business Chronicle
