  • Brexit - Deal Or No Deal – What Does This Mean for Your IP?

    Brexit - Deal Or No Deal – What Does This Mean for Your IP?

    TRADE MARKS Brexit - Deal or no deal – what does this mean for your IP? In March this year the UK and the European Commission issued a joint working document which includes guidance on IP issues post Brexit which Barker Brettell commented on here. In that document there is provision for the automatic extension of any granted EU rights to the UK post Brexit and for an application process for the continuation of any pending EU applications into additional UK applications. This joint working document made it clear that although the UK is due to leave the European Union on the 29th March 2019, provided that the UK and the EU arrive at an exit agreement there will be a transition period through to the 31st December 2020, throughout which EU law will still apply within the UK. On the 24th September, mindful of the increasing speculation regarding a ‘no deal’ Brexit, the UK government issued a number of technical notes. The UK government made it clear that it will make unilateral provision for the continuation of all EU rights in the UK if no deal is struck and that those provisions will mirror the joint working document. In such a ‘no deal’ scenario however, the transitional provisions taking us to the end of 2020 will not apply. Rights would be impacted as of the exit date. It could be ‘business as usual’ for IP until the end of 2020 and indeed patents are unaffected by Brexit, however businesses need to be aware of the implications going forward and to consider what action can be taken now to minimise any risks and potential costs.

LIMITATIONS ON COPYRIGHT PROTECTION FOR FORMAT IDEAS IN REALITY TELEVISION PROGRAMMING I. INTRODUCTION Television networks constantly compete to find and produce the next big hit. The shifting economic landscape forged by increasing competition between and among ever-proliferating media platforms, however, places extreme pressure on network profit margins. Fully scripted hour-long dramas and half-hour comedies have become increasingly costly, while delivering diminishing ratings in the key demographics most valued by advertisers. It therefore is not surprising that the reality television genre has become a staple of network schedules. New reality shows are churned out each season.1 The main appeal, of course, is that they are cheap to make and addictive to watch. Networks are able to take ordinary people and create a show without having to pay “A-list” actor salaries and hire teams of writers.2 Many of the most popular programs are unscripted, meaning lower cost for higher ratings. Even where the ratings are flat, such shows are capable of generating higher profit margins through advertising directed to large groups of more readily targeted viewers.

  • The Influence of Personal Characteristics and Reference Dependence in Risky Decision-Making for a High-Stakes Game Show

    The Influence of Personal Characteristics and Reference Dependence in Risky Decision-Making for a High-Stakes Game Show

    Name: Robin Rietveldt Student Number: 329975 Date: 27/06/2012 The influence of personal characteristics and reference dependence in risky decision-making for a high-stakes game show By Robin Rietveldt Erasmus University, Erasmus School of Economics _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract This paper takes a look at the decision-making of contestants in the game show “De Postcode Loterij Miljoenenjacht”, the format that is also known as “Deal or No Deal” in countries outside The Netherlands. I have sampled 41 episodes looking for differences in decision-making caused by gender and age. No significant effects were found but this might be related to the fact that the semi final has characteristics of a “selection round”. In addition I looked for signs of reference dependence in the data. The data showed “Winners” and “Losers” were less likely to deal compared to their “Neutral” counterparts. This proves that the course of the game is relevant to what decision a contestant will make at the end of the round. My theory for “Winners” not only includes effects of reference dependence but also the overvaluation of small probabilities. Keywords Decision making under risk; game show; risk preferences; risk aversion; prospect theory; deal or no deal _____________________________________________________________________ Introduction If I look back on the three years of economics education and have to name one core concept of the program that was of most importance it would be decision-making. Whether it was deciding what investment to pursue, what product to buy in the market or how to decide in games according to game theory. But knowing how to optimally decide, or decide rationally, isn’t everything.

    Is Deal Or No Deal Cheating Its Contestants?

    OC TM Is Deal or No Deal Cheating Its Contestants? Daniel R. Shifflet, Bowling Green State University As fans of fair contests, we are lead to believe that game shows proceed with mathematical consistency. However, a slight anomaly in this basic assumption can be found while watching the game play of Deal or No Deal. During certain situations it seems like the show is cheating its contestants. Could any mathematician let this question go without further analysis? Of course not! So began an investigation into our hypothesis.
