Abstract

Intellectual property (IP) plays an essential role in protecting the output of human creativity and is a tool for transforming intangible assets into innovation. The increased use of digital technologies and the transition to a knowledge-based economy have brought unexpected challenges to the IP system, which needs more robust tools. Blockchain presents itself as a technology with disruptive potential because of its revolutionary nature and potential to break several paradigms imposed by the regulation of the IP system. This article aims to introduce to readers of both areas which challenges blockchain can solve within the IP ecosystem, as well as to understand how these proposals are understood and worked on an international scale, primarily through the actions of global organizations, performing a diagnosis of how it is possible to make blockchain bring tangible benefits to the IP system.
