Introduction
Intellectual property (IP) law plays a crucial role in fostering innovation by providing creators with the necessary incentives and protections for their ideas and inventions. As the global economy continues to rely more heavily on knowledge-based industries, the importance of IP law in driving innovation has become increasingly evident. This thesis aims to explore the impact of intellectual property law on innovation, examining how different aspects of IP law influence the innovation process and the overall economy.
