Summary of the Expert Workshop
(CDEP)
IP-Based Financing
(CDEP)
• By digitising and linking their databases, patent offices are able to do better prior art searches + diffusion improves better patent quality + more (and more efficient) innovation
• Copyright has been the strongest performer among IP types in terms of the investment it attracts and the jobs it creates
• IPRs can drive growth not only by conferring exclusive rights, but also by serving as a basis to acquire financing: collateral + signalling effect

6. Knowledge Based Capital (DDI)
DDI impact across the economy (demand side)
• Firms’ productivity growth: +5% to +10%
• Use of public sector data in the OECD: USD 509 billion in 2008

6. DDI: economic impact
Data and analytics market (supply side)
• Global market for data analytics: USD 17 billion by 2015 (+40% CAGR);
• OECD market for public sector data: USD 97 billion in 2008 (+7% CAGR);
Many social benefits (well-being) are not captured by economic statistics!
Demand side
• Lack of skills and competencies
• Reluctance to organisational change
• Barriers to entrepreneurship
6. DDI: Challenges
Supply side
• Barriers to the free flow of data (incl. data access and portability);
• “Data ownership”: a concept of limited use
• Quality of data & analytics
Societal challenges
• Market concentration and dominance
• Shift in power exacerbating existing inequalities
• Trust deterioration through e.g. privacy violation 14
6. DDI-related indicators: France
