The rules on digital intellectual property. IPR - good stuff from The Times (UK) People have ideas all the time.
In business, new ideas can lead to new products and services. They can lead to a better way of doing something. Ideas can come from existing businesses through research and development.

IP for free_NSW_Glasgow. Australian universities are being encouraged to make their intellectual property available for free, after the University of NSW said it will offer IP licences to entrepreneurs at no charge.
In a bid to stimulate the take-up of technology, UNSW will offer IP licences for a range of ideas and research results to entrepreneurs and companies at no cost. Licences will need to disclose how the information will be commercialised. If it is not exploited within three years, the university will reclaim the rights to use the information. UNSW also will hold on to any IP it thinks it can commercialise successfully.
Les Field, UNSW deputy vice-chancellor for research, says the initiative, known as Easy Access IP, says private companies are better equipped to apply research to new products and services. “This is quite a radical departure from the way that UNSW and most universities have been doing business,” Field told The Australian Financial Review .
