Results achieved

As part of its conclusions, the study pointed out that the trend in the participation of holders of registrations made before the competent body of the state in the matter of copyright and related rights (ddi) registrations, presents a notorious upward trend concerning the women (10%). this situation contrasts with the fall that in the same period registered the participation of male holders, whose downward trend is comparatively greater (15%). this notorious difference, which is obtained from the interpretation of the analyzed figures, provides concrete antecedents that reflect the greater individual and associative participation that women have regarding the ownership of copyrights and related rights effectively registered. finally, it should be noted that when women jointly hold the ownership of rights, it is more significant when they concur with male owners, while it is not very significant when it happens together with legal persons.
