Results achieved
This law grants the creator the right to prevent other people from reproducing or using their work without previous consent. copyright is particularly important for the economic growth, industrial productivity, employment, creativity and information based on investment processes.on that basis, mexican artists are offered the possibility to legally back up their works. there are still some challenges to overcome such as the streaming of the registry process and the promotion of  the benefits received from this law so other artists integrate to register their works, particularly visual artists.
