LEGISLATÍVNE PREKÁŽKY KOMERCIALIZÁCIE DUŠEVNÉHO VLASTNÍCTVA NA PÔDE SLOVENSKEJ AKADÉMIE VIED PO JEJ TRANSFORMÁCIÍ V ROKU 2022
Abstract
The transformation of research institutes and centres of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (SAS) into public research institutions (PRI) in 2022 represents a completion of a long-term transformation process that began legislatively 8 years ago, in 2014, and ideologically even earlier, approximately 14 years ago, in 2008. The new legal framework on the one hand, removed several previous legislative obstacles that fully prevented a commercialization of intellectual property as a result of research and innovation in the environment of the SAS. On the other hand, even with regard to the mentioned historical debt, the legislation could help the effective technology transfer much more significantly. Some specific suggestions are presented in this post.
