' analysis
In the wake of last year's Gowers Review of intellectual property (IP) law in the UK, some of the report's recommendations are starting to bear fruit, but with the dominance of the entertainment industry in the area, the information sector risks being left out in the cold.
The Patent Office is to rebrand this month to the UK Intellectual Property Office (UK-IPO), and will harmonise the policing of IP infringement.
According to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), the name change will better reflect its wider responsibilities for the UK's IP.
UK-IPO's remit is to enforce IP based on the Gowers recommendations and his assertion that IP law should be a "recognition of IP crime as an area for police action as a component of organised crime".
