Digitization

The world has experienced an unprecedented rate of change in the last few decades. We have gone from an analog society, where we manually handled documents and used large, physical archives to store them, to an increasingly paperless digital society, where date centres, crypto currency and Smart phones have become part of everyday life. The way we do things, both at home and in the office, is becoming increasingly easier thanks to new digital aids and technology. At the touch of a screen we can buy bus tickets, pay bills, have a video conference with a colleague in China, or turn on the heating in our cabins.

Smart Society

The “smart society” is a term often used to describe the digital society of the future. It refers to a society, where the need for us to give instructions has become increasingly redundant, and objects around us do things automatically. Cars and boats drive themselves, the cat is fed automatically, and goods from the shop are paid for without us even having to open our wallet.

Fintech

The transition to a digital society has resulted in the emergence of a number of new players, who are using new digital technology to compete in very traditional industries. The finance industry is just one example, where new players have quickly become competitive thanks to finance technology, or fintech. Machine learning has become an important part of finance technology, thanks to greater computing power and faster transmission of huge amounts of data.

Industry Players

There are many different players in the field of digitization, ranging from global tech giants to small start-ups with just a few, passionate staff working from home.

Why are intellectual property rights important?

The number of firms offering new digital solutions is increasing rapidly and competition is tough. The practices of copying technology, poaching employees and adapting business models are widespread. Protection of IPR is therefore particularly important for companies working with different digitization solutions. Patent protection, secrecy strategies, good contracts and trademark protection are just some of the ways to safeguard IPR.

How can we help?

Bryn Aarflot can help you ensure that your competitors do not steal your employees, your ideas or copy your technology.

Proper control of your intangible assets increases your company’s value and makes you more attractive to investors.
