The thesis about resistance to innovations is not just an academic observation, but an everyday reality of any economy. New technologies and business models inevitably disrupt the usual balance of interests: under threat are not only jobs, but entire industries, management structures, legal and financial mechanisms. From the point of view of intellectual property, it is precisely here that the true role of the patent system is manifested: it must not slow down changes, but create transparent and fair rules for their implementation. Patents and trademarks become instruments of a civilized transition from the old to the new, reducing the level of conflict between "traditional" players and innovators. In this sense, sustainable growth is not a rejection of competition, but the willingness of society and the state to institutionally support those who propose new solutions. Without the protection of innovations through legal mechanisms, even the most brilliant ideas remain only a threat to the existing order, and not a driver of development.
