At the seminar, experts called for improvements to legislation governing AI and digital copyright, stronger sanctions for infringements, the development of an interconnected system for managing and protecting digital copyright, and a transparent copyright marketplace. They also stressed the need for a rapid-response mechanism involving regulatory authorities, courts, internet service providers and digital platforms to deal promptly with infringements and prevent illicit financial flows.
The seminar concluded that there is a need to shift from a reactive approach to infringement enforcement towards managing the entire lifecycle of creative works – from establishing rights, identification and licensing to fair revenue distribution. Such an approach would help unlock creative resources and promote the development of Vietnam’s digital cultural industries.
