Research at CIPPM

A distinctive approach to Intellectual Property Law

CIPPM research projects typically combine legal and social science methodologies, drawing on the economic and management expertise available within its interdisciplinary setting. Since 2000, CIPPM has received more than £400,000 in research funding.

Recent projects include studies on:

  • the earnings of authors in the UK and Germany (a survey of 25,000 writers funded by UK collecting society ALCS)
  • Finance Patents for the Financial Services Research Forum
  • Geographical Indications under TRIPS for a European government
  • Artists and Copyright in the audio-visual field for the Arts Council.
  • Intellectual property in the the non-law curriculum

A major current project is a Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) resource enhancement initiative on Copyright History, jointly with the Centre for Intellectual Property & Information Law and Cambridge University.

For current projects and publications of individual centre members, view our staff database.

CIPPM also has edited a series of monographs in association with Palladian Law Publishing.

We also offer extensive PhD Research degrees.
