Intellectual Property Lifecycle Management Mechanism Enabled by Blockchain Technology and Its Future Exploration
In the era of globalization,interconnection,and digitalization,the protection and development of intellectual property(IP)has become more challenging.Due to its technological advantages,blockchain technology has triggered industry changes and introduced new business models,forming a new development pattern in which"blockchain empowers everything".From the perspective of technology empowerment,this article explores the logical fit between blockchain technology and intellectual property rights using the TOE framework,following the research line of"technology empowerment-mechanism deconstruction-path exploration"based on the theories of IP life cycle and IP ecosystem.It highlights the mechanism of blockchain technology empowering IP life cycle management,and explores the technology empowerment models and characteristics of the empowered IP ecosystem.Focusing on the risks when blockchain technology is deeply integrated with IP life cycle management,the study presents the risks under the PESTEL framework,thus expanding the theoretical boundaries of blockchain technology empowerment in terms of cognition,application,system,and safeguards.
