Technology Pooling Licensing Agreements by Monica Armillotta Pdf

In patent communities, several patentees cooperate contractually to license the respective patented technologies to third parties. In consideration of the rising relevance of this business practice, this dissertation discusses crucial courses and strategic considerations - which are the basis for the establishment of patent communities, both in legal and empirical regard - in order to identify the optimal conditions for successful conversion in a competitive surrounding. Thus, the best conditions for the promotion of innovation are to be created. In this regard, the composition and the structure are examined within such communities, with special consideration of the nature of the contained technologies (e.g. "complementary" contrary to "substitute" technologies). Furthermore, the study is completed by taking into account the regulation of the EU and of the US. Dissertation.

Technology Patent Licensing by Larry Goldstein,Larry M. Goldstein,Brian N. Kearsey Pdf

In Technology Patent Licensing authors pull readers through the entire process of planning and implementing a patent licensing program, - beginning to end. Using by example, the mobile communications industry, the book covers critical topics such as the interaction of international technology standards and patent licensing, a comparison of the three main types of patent licensing, the determination of patent "essentiality" and its effect on the valuation of the patent, licensing terms which are "Fair, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory" ("FRAND"), how to obtain no action letters from antitrust authorities such as the U.S. Department of Justice, the European Commission, and the Japanese Fair Trade Commission, and guidelines for the planning and implementation of an organized licensing arrangement for technology subject to international standards.A vitally important tool for corporate managers of technology or patent licensing, intellectual property lawyers, antitrust lawyers advising technology clients, technical or legal professionals at standards bodies such as ANSI, ARIB, ETSI, IEEE, and the ITU, for officials at government bodies (such as an Antitrust Authority, a Patent and Trademark Office, or a Fair Trade Commission) who work at the interface of intellectual property and competition policies, and for holders of essential technology patents who are engaged in the creation of organized arrangements for the licensing of patent rights.

Intellectual Property Licences and Technology Transfer by Duncan Curley Pdf

This essential guide vital new changes by the European Commission to the law governing the enforceability of intellectual property licences in Europe. Agreements which contain the grant of a licence by one party to another of intellectual property rights are subject to European competition (anti-trust) laws. In particular, many agreements containing licences of patent rights and rights in confidential information and technical know-how are caught by Article 81(1) of the EC Treaty, which prohibits agreements between undertakings which prevent, restrict or distort competition in the Common Market. However, because licences of intellectual property rights usually facilitate the transfer of technology from one undertaking to another, and the licensor and licensee will often operate at different levels of the market, many licences of intellectual property rights may benefit from an automatic exemption under Article 81(3) of the EC Treaty. On 1 May 2004, this exemption is being radically overhauled, as part of the European Commission’s drive to modernise European competition law. This book examines the changes in that legislation. The legislation is completely new and there is therefore no existing book on the market The change in the law will require an entirely new approach to the drafting of IP licences The change in the law will require existing IP licences to be re-examined and possibly re-negotiated

EU Competition Law and the Information and Communication Technology Network Industries by Andrej Fatur Pdf

Competition policies have long been based on a scholarly tradition focused on static models and static analysis of industrial organisation. However, recent developments in industrial organisation literature have led to significant advances, moving beyond traditional static models and a preoccupation with price competition, to consider the organisation of industries in a dynamic context. This is especially important in the field of information and communication technology (ICT) network industries where competition centres on network effects, innovation and intellectual property rights, and where the key driver of consumer benefit is technological progress. Consequently, when an antitrust intervention is contemplated, a number of considerations that arise out of the specific nature of the ICT sector have to be taken into account to ensure improved consumer welfare. This book considers the adequacy of existing EU competition policy in the area of the ICT industries in the light of the findings of modern economic theory. Particular attention is given to the implications of these dynamic markets for the competitive assessment and treatment of the most common competitive harms in this area, such as non-price predatory practices, tying and bundling, co-operative standard setting, platform joint ventures and co-operative R&D.

Patent Pools, Competition Law and Biotechnology by Devdatta Malshe Pdf

Exploring the relationship between competition law and technology pools, this book provides general-purpose details of the biotechnology patent pool scheme while discussing historical developments, approaches of the US Department of Justice, Federal Trade Commission, and the European Union Competition Commission via EU regulations. In addition to these regulatory approaches and evolution in concept and theory of technology pools, this book illustrates relationship issues including tying arrangements and essential facility consideration vis-à-vis technology pools. It analyzes the modalities of forming such pools in the area of biotechnology, specifically illustrating that the formation of technology pools is possible and can be safely undertaken, and proposes a viable solution and structure. Patent pools in the biotechnology industry will pave the way towards open collaborative research, reducing patent thickets. Formation of such pools will increase access to various technology and patents otherwise out of bounds, resulting in a reduction of licensing costs and a spur in the development of new solutions. Most importantly, such pools will reduce the frequency of patent toll gates, making the entire spectrum of research interesting from the perspective of researchers as well as investors. This book will be an aid to researchers studying intellectual property, patents, and biotechnology, as well as to interest groups including funding agencies, venture funds, angel investors, and proponents of the open-source movement.

Technology Transfer and the New EU Competition Rules by Steven D. Anderman,John Kallaugher Pdf

The new Technology Transfer Block Exemption Regulation (in force from May 1, 2004) signals a profound change in the nature of the regulatory framework for technology licensing under EU competition law. This book examines the new Regulation in detail, placing it in the wider context of: (i) the modernisation reforms of EC competition law; and (ii) the treatment of IP rights over technology more generally. The book also considers the approach to assessment of IP issues set out in the Guidelines that accompany the Regulation; the authors discuss their legal basis and, where appropriate, criticise the approach taken by the Guidelines where the legal basis is unsure.
