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.
