The technological revolution that we have been experiencing has led to a redefinition of the notion of wealth: this concept, traditionally identified with land ownership, has begun to be associated above all with credit, and today there is also a move towards advocating the exclusive use of ideal entities. It is impossible nowadays to think of exclusive use of specific assets without considering intellectual property rights, especially in their economic dimension: this is a major reason for engaging in innovation and development activities. Without this level of protection, which offers the possibility of a return on investment, it is unlikely that companies would embark on the process of creating new products and services with the same impetus. Therefore the proposal to integrate the European Observatory on Counterfeiting and Piracy in the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market is admirable, seeking as it does to aggregate the Observatory’s activities with the Office’s know-how and financial resources. It thus provides for a reinforcement of the detection and prevention of piracy cases, which not only have an economic impact but may also jeopardise consumer protection. Thus I have voted in favour."@en1
