Huawei: Professor David De Cremer touts the importance of IP rights

We live in a very fast changing world. Technological solutions are emerging everywhere. So being fast, being agile is crucial to the growth of your company, to the competitiveness of your company. So if we want to maintain that high, fast paced level of innovation, we need to bring ideas out there as soon as they have arrived. Justice and fairness are essential human values that, regardless of the context that we work in, regardless whether we work in a technological environment or not, these are principles that matter. Every person, every individual on this planet deserves the right to have their ideas protected and create value for themselves. So in essence, going back, the intellectual property rights are a standard that need to be maintained. And I think many companies pride themselves in following that procedure.
