        "content": "<p>Singapore, (ANTARA\/PRNewswire) - To mark World Intellectual Property\nDay 2026, PitchMark\u00ae has launched Ideas.Exchange, an innovative platform\nthat helps creators protect intellectual property, commercially exploit\ntheir ideas, and structure creative communication processes in an\nincreasingly AI-based economy.<\/p>\n<p>The platform was unveiled by PitchMark\u00ae at the \u201cSafeguard Your IP in\nthe Age of AI\u201d event, attended by media representatives and moderated by\nSri Jegarajah from CNBC. The introduction of Ideas.Exchange addresses\nconcerns that ideas are often used, recycled, or absorbed without\nattribution, consent, or compensation\u2014frequently without legal or\ncommercial recourse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAI expands reach while increasing risks for creators,\u201d said Mark\nLaudi, Managing Partner, PitchMark LLP. \u201cIdeas.Exchange provides a way\nfor creators to protect their intellectual property while confidently\noffering their ideas to various parties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Ideas.Exchange platform offers three main solutions for\ncreators:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><p>Protecting intellectual property through proof of authorship and\nidea priority<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Commercially exploiting ideas rather than giving them away for\nfree<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Structuring communication processes so that idea presentations\nand evaluations occur within a structured framework<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ideas.Exchange is supported by three key technologies developed by\nPitchMark: a blockchain-based clearing house system for recording and\nlicensing ideas, smart contracts that automate usage terms and minimise\ndisputes, and the IP Governance Certification Programme as a practice\nfor responsible idea management, particularly in corporate and AI\ncontexts.<\/p>\n<p>According to PitchMark, the platform delivers three concrete impacts:\npreventing idea theft, opening monetisation opportunities through more\nstructured licensing schemes, and creating a fairer ecosystem so\ncreators can offer ideas to clients or platforms equitably.<\/p>\n<p>PitchMark launched Ideas.Exchange amid growing public scrutiny of\nintellectual property protection issues in the AI era. Although rarely\nsurfacing, the practice of taking ideas without permission has\nsignificant impacts\u2014from financial losses to long-term effects like\ntalent drain, stalled innovation, and missed market opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost idea theft practices occur informally and rarely proceed to the\nlegal realm,\u201d said David Llewelyn, Emeritus Professor of Law, Singapore\nManagement University. \u201cWe need better governance, traceability, and\nstandards to close these gaps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Prof.\u00a0Llewelyn, speakers such as legal expert and\ntechnology advocate Bryan Ghows and Mark Laudi are available for further\ninterviews.<\/p>\n<p>About PitchMark<\/p>\n<p>PitchMark\u00ae prevents idea theft while helping creators derive economic\nvalue from their work by providing reliable methods to share and license\nideas to potential clients or business partners.<\/p>\n<p>SOURCE PitchMark<\/p>",
