On Wednesday, 5 April 2023, the first meeting of the Council of the Slovenian Open Science Community took place.
The creation of the Slovenian Open Science Community is not a new joint organisation or consortium of institutions or any other form of formal association, but a voluntary platform for collaboration, coordination and the creation of a critical mass for the unification of infrastructure, services, education and skills, with the aim of achieving sustainability and strengthening collaboration.
The Intellectual Property Institute and the Open Data and Intellectual Property Institute are members of the Community, and Dr Maja Bogataj Jančič attended the meeting in this capacity. She presented the European Research Area Action 2 group (to which she was appointed on 26.1.2023 by the Ministry of Higer education, Science and Innovation): A research-appropriate EU legislative and regulatory framework on copyright and data.
The Grand Board of the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) finally ruled that the figurative sign ‘COVIDIOT’ cannot be registered as an EU trademark.
The 4th Open Knowledge Day took place on Tuesday 17 October 2023, with an accompanying workshop on 18 October 2023. This year it was organised by the Open Data and Intellectual Property Institute (ODIPI) and supported by Knowledge Rights 21 (KR21).
We invite you to the fourth Open Knowledge Day and the workshop, which will take place this year within the framework of the programme and with the support of Knowledge Rights 21. The event will bring together experts from different European countries to discuss two topics: the first part will deal with the legal basis for data analytics, which is a key part of machine learning and related artificial intelligence, and the general exception for research. In the second part, open science in theory and practice will be presented both in Slovenia and in some Western Balkan countries. Representatives of research and educational institutions from Slovenia and the Western Balkan countries, as well as interested members of the public, are invited to attend.
Dr. Maja Bogataj Jančič, a renowned expert in copyright law, has joined the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University, where she will serve as an affiliate researcher for the next two years.
