Analysing the Impact of IP Technical Assistance
This study aims to assess to what extent developed country technical assistance programmes are likely to have interacted with, and potentially contributed to the promotion of country-appropriate sustainable changes in intellectual property strategies and technological capacities over the period 2005-10. It does this primarily on the basis of Intellectual property technical assistance impact assessments of four emerging and transition economies; namely Brazil, India, Poland and Thailand and an overview of intellectual property technical assistance in Least Developed Countries (LDCs).

The Flow of Knowledge from the Academic Research Base into the Economy: the Use and Effectiveness of Formal IPRs and "Soft IP" in UK Universities
This report focusses on the use of formal intellectual property rights (IPRs) and “soft IP” as the new ideas and creative expressions developed by academic researchers are put into use. It carries out a theoretical and empirical investigation of the analytical framework developed by SABIP on the flows of knowledge between the universities’ research base and commercial and social use, and proposes new ways to articulate this framework more fully.
