Patent Filing Strategies and Patent Management by Florian Jell Pdf
Florian Jell empirically investigates the objectives that companies pursue with their patenting activities and presents empirical insights into how patent management is organized within industrial companies. The book concludes with a case study of how a company reacted to its competitor’s patenting – which led to a patent arms race.
As individuals and companies realise the importance of their inventions, issues surrounding patent laws and practices are taking centre stage around the world. Patent Strategy introduces researchers to patent applications and patent portfolios. With minimum use of ‘legal jargon’ it provides the technical professional with the assistance and advice they require to understand the legal complexities that they may encounter before and during a patent application. It also discusses the responsibilities of the researcher after patent applications have been filed and the role the researcher can play in the maintenance of a global patent estate. This updated edition of the best selling book has been expanded to keep pace with modern day movements and addresses the global issue surrounding intellectual property. Including new information on areas such as software and biotechnology it shows the techniques that can be used by individuals and academic inventors to protect their work and is the ideal reference source. Bridges the gap between the legal system and scientific research and avoids legal jargon Details the reasons behind patents, their importance and relevance to all researchers and the strategy needed for filing for a patent Focuses on the strategy and reasons rather than just being a textbook of patent law Presents an overview of tools a researcher can use while working with a patent attorney or agent Adopts a readable style that explains the basics right up to developing a strategy Essential reading for all those who wish to keep pace and protect their work Reviews from previous edition: "...I can recommend it for technology managing types.

FROM PATENT TO PROFIT Patents and patent strategies are increasingly pertinent to the success of information age businesses, from affecting valuations to gaining tax advantages to increasing the starting price per share when taking a company public. Patent Strategy illustrates the impact patents can have on technology-driven businesses' tactical and strategic efforts. Here is step-by-step guidance to the patent process, the laws, and basic strategies-from a business-goal perspective-so that middle and upper-level managers can recognize the significance of patents in relation to a particular business and can incorporate proper patent management efforts into their business framework. In addition, this book serves as an invaluable reference for management and executives when making patent-related decisions such as whether a patent infringement study must be performed; whether the budget for patent matters should be increased or decreased; whether attempts should be made to license certain patent technology; and whether the firm should sue for patent infringement. * Case studies throughout the book give you a specific business context within which to consider the concepts introduced * Statistics are presented to assist you in assessing various issues, planning patent strategies, and implementing patent management programs
Biopatent Law: Patent Strategies and Patent Management by Andreas Hübel,Thilo Schmelcher,Ulrich Storz Pdf
Patents protecting biotechnological invention are becoming ever more important. Because biotechnology has many differences with respect to other technologies, lessons learned in other fields of technology cannot simply be transferred to adopt a suitable strategy for dealing with biotechnology inventions. In this volume, general aspects of biopatent law will be discussed. This involves questions of patentability, including ethical issues and issues of technicality, as well as questions of patent exhaustion in cases were reproducible subject matter, like cells or seeds, is protected. Moreover, active and passive patent strategies are addressed. Further, insight will be given into patent lifetime management and additional protective measures, like supplementary protection certificates and data exclusivity. Here, strategies are discussed how market exclusivity can be extended as long as possible, which is particularly important for biopharmaceutical drugs, which create high R&D costs.

Essentials of Patents by Andy Gibbs,Bob DeMatteis Pdf
While there are many books on "how to patent" and patent law, Essentials of Patents delivers practical advice on how to leverage patents as a powerful competitive corporate tool. This is not your "ordinary patent book". It's emphasis is directed to patent management with the express emphasis of increasing shareholder value, and it's audience, each with its own chapter, includes the CEO / ICO, CFO, CTO, and cross functional managers of HR, Engineering, Manufacturing and IT. Essentials of Patents is arguably one of the first works on intellectual property that drives home the importance of patent creation, protection and exploitation throughout the enterprise. Gibbs and DeMatteis show how patents can enhance competitive intelligence, product development cost reduction, product line expansion, and revenue streams, making this guide a must-have for the savvy manager. In it, the authors introduce a new management methodology: Patent Quality Management, or "PQM". With public company market values more than 90% attributable to the value of intangible assets and patents, the time has come for all corporate managers, not just R&D and legal counsel, to master intellectual property management in this competitive global market (and shareholders are demanding it).

In a world where your intellectual property is your most valuable asset, patents are becoming an essential tool for achieving and maintaining a competitive edge. With billions of dollars at stake, companies are defending their patents vigorously; high-profile cases, such as Microsoft's $900 million patent dispute settlement with Sun Microsystems, and Medtronic's acquisition of a competitor's entire patent portfolio for $1.35 billion, are cases in point. While most companies will not operate at this level, the strategic management of patents, and the costs of enforcing and defending them, are becomining critical business functions. In this accessible and practical guide, Henry Heines shows readers how to apply due diligence, a common concept in corporate finance and investing, to analyze the costs and benefits of patent management, and to navigate through the legal and technical maze. With dozens of examples from many industries, he walks readers through the various ways in which technological advances can be presented as patentable inventions and in which the patents of competitors can be confronted and evaluated. He also offers guidance in managing a portfolio of patents and inventions, regardless of whether they make it to market as products. A glossary of terms and listing of resources will make this book a handy reference for anyone involved in product development, corporate strategy, or intellectual property.

Strategic Patent Management by Lorenz Zehetbauer Pdf
Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensführung, Management, Organisation, Technische Universität München (Dr. Theo Schöller-Stiftungslehrstuhl für Technologie- und Innovationsmanagement), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Patent System in Deutschland, mit dessen traditionellen Aufgaben und dem Patent Management von Unternehmen. Dabei werden im Besonderen moderne, neu hinzukommende Aufgaben und Ziele des Patent Systems untersucht. Traditionell hat das Patent System die Aufgabe, Erfinder zum Erfinden zu motivieren und im Gegenzug die gemachten Erfindungen der Öffentlichkeit zu präsentieren. Der Vorteil der gesteigerten Wertschöpfung einer Erfindung durch ein Exklusiv-Nutzungs-Recht (Patent) steht dabei in Konflikt mit dem Nachteil der Veröffentlichung, da damit eine Grundlage für Nachahmer und Wettbewerber geschaffen wird. Diese Veröffentlichung hat, neben den hohen Kosten für ein Patent, in jüngerer Vergangenheit dazu geführt, dass andere Mechanismen zur Wertschöpfung aus der Erfindung (z.B. “lead time advantages” und “complementary assets”) vermeintlich wichtiger wurden. Nichtsdestotrotz ist die jährliche Anzahl an Patentanmeldungen annähernd gleichbleibend hoch. Dafür muss es also Gründe innerhalb des Patent Systems geben. Diese Arbeit untersucht das Patent System, insbesondere den Patent-Anmeldungs-Prozess am DPMA1, um solche Gründe näher zu beleuchten. Dabei werden Verhaltensmuster von Erfindern innerhalb des Patent Prozesses, wie sie Henkel und Jell (2009) beschreiben, mit möglichen Motiven für ein solches Verhalten verknüpft. Durch diese Vorgehensweise soll Aufschluss darüber gegeben werden, warum diese Anmelder sich so verhalten und damit aus welchen Gründen sie ein Patent angemeldet haben. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit, die durch eine schriftliche Umfrage (Fragebogen) unter 1160 Erfindern gestützt werden, kommen zu dem Schluss, dass es neben den traditionellen Gründen ein Patent anzumelden, zusätzliche strategische Gründe gibt. Solche sind z.B. die Möglichkeit, mit Hilfe einer Vielzahl von Patentanmeldungen die eigene Technologie-Strategie Wettbewerbern zu verschleiern oder die Möglichkeit, die nationale Patentanmeldung als Grundlage für weitere Patentanmeldungen in anderen Ländern zu nutzen. Diese strategischen Motive eines Erfinders, das Patent System zu nutzen, erklären die konstant hohe Zahl an Patentanmeldungen am DPMA.
Research on patent valuation has become increasingly important in academic and policy circles in the last few decades. In part, this is the outcome of the wide consensus that innovation is a crucial ingredient for growth at various levels. On the other hand, there has also been an overcoming of growth models unilaterally focused on technological-oriented approaches. This book presents novel and original research on patent value determinants, which are intrinsic or extrinsic to the innovator's business model. Grid Thoma has undertaken a long study on the strategic factors affecting patent valuation, bringing extensive quantitative evidences across various geographical and institutional contexts. Beforehand, the valuation of the patent real options is appraised when the innovator can postpone the additional investment required for the patent's successful exploitation. Then, he analyses what other complemental IP strategies are combined with patenting that in turn directly affect the value of patents. Moreover, the book scrutinizes the so-called 'strategic patenting' hypothesis according to which innovators obtain patents for other reasons beyond gaining IP protection. A second order of strategic factors affecting the value of patents resides at the outset of the invention process. These are constituted by knowledge spillovers, which are typically mediated by the local geographical context where the invention process takes place. The analysis shows that the contribution of knowledge spillovers from business and nonbusiness organizations to the value of the patented R&D constitutes a relevant aspect for an innovator's decision making. This thoughtful, cutting-edge research book is vital reading for researchers, academics, and policy decision makers in the area of in market valuation, management of technology, innovation management, and economic geography.
