Protecting intellectual property

 

1.  Protecting intellectual property in a competitive global business environment can be
difficult. It can also be expensive. Seeking patent protection in the United
States alone can cost businesses thousands of dollars, and that price only goes
up when seeking international protection. What factors do you think business
leaders consider when deciding to pursue intellectual property protection? Put
yourself in the shoes of an international business executive. What things would
you want to know before making such a sizable investment? 

One or two references– 2 paragraphs

2.  You are an officer in an American corporation that has a
significant portion of its assets in IPRs. You wish to expand in your
region.   One or two references.
Write a brief memo to your boss (1–2 pages double-spaced) that outlines the
risks and rewards of licensing your choice of an IPR in that region. That
choice could be a trade or service mark, a patent, a copyright, or a
combination of them. State what the IPR is. Try to identify the best nation or
nations in which to enter the market. Decide if you would use your own employees
or independent agents and why.

Case 8.4: Have Gun, Will Travel…to WorkLocated on page 312 of your textbook

  1. Do you have not only a legal, but a moral right to own a gun? Do you believe that you have either a moral or a legal right to park a car with a loaded gun in a privately owned parking lot, regardless of what the lot’s owner wants?
  2. In your view, do employees have either a moral or a legal right to park cars with guns in them in the company parking lot? What do you believe should be the property rights and safety concerns of employers?
  3. Do you think state legislatures are right to get involved, or should the matter be left to companies and employees to settle? 
  4. Because the workplace is the company’s private property, the company could choose to allow employees to bring guns not only into the parking lot, but also into the workplace itself. Are there ever circumstances in which doing so might be reasonable? Or would the presence of guns automatically violate the rights of other employees to be guaranteed a safe working environment?

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Determine the considerations for and process of ethical business decision making to balance corporate and social responsibilities and address moral, economic, and legal concerns.
  • Analyze selected business situations using the predominant ethical theories, such as utilitarian, Kantian, and virtue ethics to guide ethical business decision making.
  • Determine the implications and impact of various civil liberty laws in the workplace, such as hiring, promotion, discipline, discharge, and wage discrimination.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in business ethics.
  • Write clearly and concisely about business ethics using proper writing mechanics.
