Indonesia, Russia deepen IP partnership to boost innovation
The Indonesian Ministry of Law has deepened its partnership with Russia's Rospatent, the country's intellectual property authority, through a newly signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The agreement aims to strengthen Indonesia's intellectual property (IP) ecosystem, provide opportunities for Indonesian innovators to enter the Russian market, and enhance IP protection and utilization. Strategic initiatives include cooperation on digital data utilization, patent analysis, capacity building in IP valuation, information exchange, and exploring the implementation of a Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) to speed up patent examinations. Both nations also agreed to mutual support within the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), including backing Indonesia's proposals and developing a multilingual system for international WIPO registrations. Additionally, they plan to share experiences on protecting geographical indications and collaborate on projects such as an IP valuation website and participation in cross-border copyright royalty governance discussions.
