Why: Globalization and access to advanced technology have raised
intellectual property theft, brand piracy and counterfeiting
to issues of epidemic proportions. Counterfeiting is not just
about street peddlers pushing fake pocketbooks anymore. Today,
counterfeiting operations are organized, sophisticated and
range from fake pharmaceuticals to phony airplane parts - and
the Internet is their marketplace. Counterfeiting and acts of
IP theft cost the global economy hundreds of billions of
dollars each year. In fact, in August 2005, the DOPIP Security
Counterfeit Intelligence Report cited more than 309 incidents
of counterfeiting across the world valued at more than $251B.
Companies need an organized approach to brand protection to
maintain revenue, earnings and their company value. The panel
will offer insights and perspectives from industry experts on
steps companies can take to counter and prevent IP theft on
the Internet.
