The landscape of Intellectual Property in Indonesia continues to evolve, reflecting the dynamic nature of technology and innovation. One of the most significant updates in <\/span>Law No. 65 of 2024<\/b>, which is the third amendment to <\/span>Law No. 13 of 2016 <\/b>on Patents, lies in the revised definition of “Invention.”<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Old Definition<\/b><\/p>\n

Under Law No. 13 of 2016, Article 1(2) defined an invention as:<\/span><\/p>\n

“An idea of an inventor embodied into a specific problem-solving activity in the field of technology in the form of product or process, or refining and developing product or process.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While this definition provided a foundation for Patent protection, it was deemed limited in addressing the broader advancements in technology and innovation across various industries.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The New Definition<\/b><\/p>\n

With the enactment of Law No. 65 of 2024, Article 1(2) now defines an invention as:<\/span><\/p>\n

“An idea of an inventor embodied into a specific problem-solving activity in the field of technology in the form of product and\/or process, refinement, and\/or development of a product and\/or process, as well as systems, methods, and uses.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
