Impact on SMEs (6th Open Call)
EU Digital Single Market Copyright Directive aims to facilitate a fairer marketplace for rights holders. Effective IP rights management in the digital environment is key to support the competitiveness of creative SMEs. ISO/IEC 21000-23 Smart Contracts for Media supported by rich semantic copyright models can be handy when data-based decisions need to be derived by evidence and logic, leading to new business models that can be efficiently deployed on decentralised digital media platforms. Moreover, the interoperability of such platforms is addressed by ISO/IEC 23000-23 Decentralised Media Rights Application Format which building around DLT-agnostic ISO/IEC 21000-23 Smart Contracts for Media has the potential to unlock the Semantic Web and in turn the creative economy. The latter is not only one of the most rapidly growing sectors of the world economy, but also a highly transformative one in terms of income-generation, job creation, export earnings, quality of life and social cohesion.
