President of Al-Mustaqbal University Announces Copyright Certificate for the University’s Intellectual Property Protection Policy
Prof. Dr. Hassan Shakir Majdi, President of Al-Mustaqbal University, announced that the university has been awarded a Copyright Certificate by the National Center for Copyright Protection and Neighboring Rights, affiliated with the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Antiquities, for its official document “Intellectual Property Policy at Al-Mustaqbal University.” With this achievement, the university has become the first academic institution in Iraq to launch and establish an institutional policy framework dedicated to intellectual property protection. Prof. Dr. Majdi emphasized that this milestone represents a historic step in the university’s journey toward leadership and excellence. The policy was first unveiled during the Al-Mustaqbal Sustainability Week Festival last April, serving as a pioneering institutional reference that fosters an environment of creativity and innovation in Iraq. He further noted that intellectual property protection is not merely a legal procedure but a fundamental pillar of the knowledge economy, built upon ideas and innovation. It ensures exclusive rights for innovators, researchers, and entrepreneurs, enabling them to advance their work with confidence. Moreover, it creates investment and commercial opportunities, strengthens institutional competitiveness, attracts partners and investors, and generates new revenue streams through licensing and rights transfer. It also provides a secure environment that encourages research and development and supports entrepreneurs in accessing funding for their projects. He concluded by affirming that Al-Mustaqbal University remains committed to empowering innovators and researchers, stressing that this achievement will further embed intellectual property culture as a cornerstone in building a modern Iraq founded on knowledge and innovation. The Al-Mustaqbal Center for Artificial Intelligence Applications congratulated this achievement, considering it a significant milestone in reinforcing an academic ecosystem driven by innovation and excellence. 🔗 Al-Mustaqbal University Website 🔹 Al-Mustaqbal University – Ranked First among Private Universities in Iraq
