摘要

This chapter discusses critical initiatives and infrastructure by the Government of Malaysia to build a resilient IP sector. Recognising the funding gap as a major hindrance to growth, the Government, together with the relevant stakeholders, launched initiatives offering tailored funding/financing to IP-related enterprises. Highlighted schemes include the Intellectual Property Financing Schemes by the Ministry of Science Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) and Malaysia Debt Ventures Berhad (MDV); Intellectual Property Guarantee Scheme by Syarikat Jaminan Pembiayaan Perniagaan under the Minister of Finance; MTDC-pitchIN Equity Crowdfunding (ECF); MyCreative funding; and the Mat Daud Kilau Gold Wafer initiative. These schemes share a common feature: funding innovative start-ups and SMEs in the IP sector. Key enabling infrastructure and tools such as IP valuation, IP assets as collaterals, and the Incentives Coordination and Collaboration Office are also considered. The Malaysian endeavours provide a potential model for other countries, such as the United Arab Emirates, particularly in IP financing, as both countries have sizeable Islamic finance markets and rank in the top 40 of the global IP ranking among Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) countries. This chapter is timely as the global economy seeks exemplary financing/funding models for the IP industry with adaptations to specific country preferences, needs, and ecosystems.
