Advice and support for creatives
and innovators concerning Intellectual Property
Rights |
| > |
Through our steady PR activitivies
we achieved a heightened sensitivity amongst
the public for the problem and amongst entrepreneurs
and designers for the significance of IP (Intellectual
Property) Rights |
| > |
We contributed to an improved
legal situation, e.g. the Product piracy law
of 1990, which includes a prison sentence
for imitators of up to 5 years and that distributors
of plagiarisms can also be called to account

The Plagiarius citation has
a deterring effect on 5-10% of the imitators
(fear of public disgrace) |

Some "prize
winners" admit their unethical behaviour
and seek a mutual agreement with the original
producer (payment of a licence or compensation
fee, withdrawal of the product from the market)
