Illuminating Innovation, Lea B. Shaver
Illuminating Innovation, Lea B. Shaver
Lea Shaver
The central justification offered for patent protection is the need to incentivize technological innovation. Yet to date there is little empirical evidence that this aim is achieved. This Article argues that historical case studies, exploring the impact of patent law on particular fields of technological innovation, can be especially helpful in providing an empirical foundation for patent scholarship. The Article then proceeds to offer one such case study, focused on one of the most important technological revolutions of the past two centuries: electrification. Although Thomas Edison and “the incandescent lamp” have been extensively studied, so far no one has asked …
Transferability And Commercialization Of Patent Rights: Economic And Practical Perspectives, Haim V. Levy
Transferability And Commercialization Of Patent Rights: Economic And Practical Perspectives, Haim V. Levy
Journal of Entrepreneurship, Management and Innovation JEMI
The transformation of innovation into commercial value depends primarily on appropriate protection of the intellectual property, usually by patents, and efficient pathway(s) of its transferability as well as the transfer of the protected knowledge. The key features of patents, from an economic perspective, are that they encompass new knowledge and confer monopoly rights to the owner. The exclusiveness of patent rights is generally conceived as a necessary mechanism to ensure further innovation, stimulate advanced research and facilitate efficient market transactions with patent rights. The patent holder can transfer the technology embodied by way of granting to others a license to …
The Spanish Cod Fishing Industry: Radical Production Changes Without Significant Changes In The Innovation System, Manuel González-López
The Spanish Cod Fishing Industry: Radical Production Changes Without Significant Changes In The Innovation System, Manuel González-López
Journal of Entrepreneurship, Management and Innovation JEMI
This paper studies the changes which have occurred in the Spanish cod fishing industry in the last few years. We also aim to understand the dynamics of industrial change and its relation to institutions, understood here as both formal and informal rules and conventions. Our results suggest that sometimes industries, in order to maintain their competitive position, need something more than incremental changes in their products or in the technologies that they use. As we can see with the Spanish cod fishing industry, major changes are needed which affect the institutional set-up of their production system. Nevertheless, even when major …

A Developmental Approach To The Patent-Antitrust Interface, Thomas K. Cheng
Thomas K. Cheng
This Article proposes a set of guiding principles for approaching the patent-antitrust interface in developing countries. Based on the notion that antitrust doctrines need to be adjusted to reflect the local economic circumstances, this Article argues that any credible approach to the patent-antitrust interface in developing countries must incorporate development considerations. It proposes a set of guiding principles that takes into account a wide range of factors, including the need to provide innovation incentives, the need to facilitate domestic imitation, the need to protect domestic consumer welfare, and the need to safeguard access to basic necessities.

On Some Of The Misconceptions About Entrepreneurship, Murray Hunter
Murray Hunter
Entrepreneurship has been played up by the media as a visionary and heroic activity. Individual entrepreneurs have been glorified through media coverage, biographies, and publicity contributing to many government and public misconceptions entrepreneurship. This paper examines some of the myths about entrepreneurship, looking at relevant research and statistics, and paints a very different picture to general public perceptions. The paper then goes on to postulate that entrepreneurship is only part of the firm lifecycle, very little innovation is generated by start-up ventures, there is no common entrepreneurial type of person, people start new businesses for non-rational reasons, very few entrepreneurs …
Do We Have 18th Century Courts For The 21st Century, Michael Buenger
Do We Have 18th Century Courts For The 21st Century, Michael Buenger
Michael Buenger
State courts continue to face both funding and political challenges. In light of these challenges state court leaders, the bar and legal educators should undertake a serious rethinking of our state courts along three thematic lines: (1) systemic reorganization to reduce fragmentation, simplify access, and provide greater flexibility and specialization in the use of resources; (2) diversification of dispute resolution processes so that cases move in different directions with a range of resolution options pegged to the issues presented; and (3) rationalization of governance, leadership, and accountability systems to enhance effective organizational management of complex institutions.

Linking Development And Innovation: What Does Technological Change Bring To The Society?, Evgeny A. Klochikhin
Evgeny A. Klochikhin
Recently, there has been a popular trend in academic research for paying more attention to ‘pro-poor’ policies and theoretical studies. This tradition has emerged from a broader understanding of development that includes not only economic but also social and political dimensions. Meanwhile, innovation researchers are still considering development as mere economic growth without much focus on the social impacts of technological change. This article recognizes that, despite these fundamental differences, the concepts of innovation and development have much in common and are, in fact, positively connected and mutually beneficial. This assumption has some important implications for the innovation and development …

The Economic Value Of Broadcast Innovation – Impact On The U.S. Treasury, Rajiv M. Hazaray
The Economic Value Of Broadcast Innovation – Impact On The U.S. Treasury, Rajiv M. Hazaray
Rajiv M Hazaray
Every day, more and more Americans begin to use smartphones, tablets, and wireless modems to access new mobile applications and services that are proliferating at an astounding pace. Some have argued that without a fundamental shift of spectrum from broadcasters to commercial wireless operators the nation will soon face a massive “mobile traffic jam” and that auctioning broadcast spectrum will deliver a revenue windfall to the U.S. Treasury.
But the opposite is true. The best way to meet the projected explosive growth in mobile data is to allow broadcasters to use point-to-multipoint “Broadcast Overlay” technology to provide the most efficient …

Public Policy Instruments In (Re)Building National Innovation Capabilities: Cases Of Nanotechnology Development In China, Russia And Brazil, Evgeny A. Klochikhin
Evgeny A. Klochikhin
In 2001 Goldman Sachs named Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRICs) the most rapidly-growing countries in the world capable of surpassing the United States, Japan and Europe as leading economies by 2050.
Nevertheless, for the last decade we have learned relatively little about the mechanisms of success and failure in these countries. All of them have huge territory and population as well as fast-growing economies that sometimes show two-digit rates of GDP growth per year and surprise the world by their increasing budgets and public spending. In the meantime, most of these countries are believed to be desperately struggling against …
The Ftc’S Proposal For Regulating Ip Through Ssos Would Replace Private Coordination With Government Hold-Up, F. Scott Kieff, Richard Epstein, Daniel Spulber
The Ftc’S Proposal For Regulating Ip Through Ssos Would Replace Private Coordination With Government Hold-Up, F. Scott Kieff, Richard Epstein, Daniel Spulber
F. Scott Kieff
In its recent report entitled “The Evolving IP Marketplace,” the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) advances a far-reaching regulatory approach (Proposal) whose likely effect would be to distort the operation of the intellectual property (IP) marketplace in ways that will hamper the innovation and commercialization of new technologies. The gist of the FTC Proposal is to rely on highly non-standard and misguided definitions of economic terms of art such as “ex ante” and “hold-up,” while urging new inefficient rules for calculating damages for patent infringement. Stripped of the technicalities, the FTC Proposal would so reduce the costs of infringement by downstream …
Competition Law And Sector Regulation In The European Energy Market After The Third Energy Package: Hierarchy And Efficiency, Michael Diathesopoulos
Competition Law And Sector Regulation In The European Energy Market After The Third Energy Package: Hierarchy And Efficiency, Michael Diathesopoulos
Michael Diathesopoulos
The aim of this research is to provide the basic parameters for a model for the definition of the relation between the general competition and sector specific frameworks and rules regarding the regulation of the Internal Energy Market, especially after the Third Energy Package. The research considers the recent sector specific framework in relation to a series of recent competition law cases of the Energy Market where structural remedies were applied under the commitments procedure. Essential facilities doctrine and generally competition law tools do not seem to provide a suitable framework for effectively addressing the dynamic competition concept, treating the …

raphael cohen-almagor
This paper outlines and analyzes milestones in the history of the Internet. As technology advances, it presents new societal and ethical challenges. The early Internet was devised and implemented in American research units, universities, and telecommunication companies that had vision and interest in cutting-edge research. The Internet then entered into the commercial phase (1984-1989). It was facilitated by the upgrading of backbone links, the writing of new software programs, and the growing number of interconnected international networks. The author examines the massive expansion of the Internet into a global network during the 1990s when business and personal computers with different …
Negotiating For The Market, Joshua S. Gans
Negotiating For The Market, Joshua S. Gans
Joshua S Gans
In a dynamic environment where underlying competition is ‘for the market,’ this paper examines what happens when entrants and incumbents can negotiate for the market. For instance, this might arise when an entrant innovator can choose to license to or be acquired by an incumbent firm; i.e., engage in cooperative commercialization. It is demonstrated that, depending upon firms’ dynamic capabilities, there may or may not be gains to trade between incumbents and entrants in a cumulative innovation environment; that is, entrants may not be adequately compensated for losses in future innovative potential. This stands in contrast to static analyses that …
Licensing As Digital Rights Management, From The Advent Of The Web To The Ipad, Reuven Ashtar
Licensing As Digital Rights Management, From The Advent Of The Web To The Ipad, Reuven Ashtar
Reuven Ashtar
This Article deals with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act’s anti-circumvention provision, Section 1201, and its relationship to licensing. It argues that not all digital locks and contractual notices qualify for legal protection under Section 1201, and attributes the courts’ indiscriminate protection of all Digital Rights Management (DRM) measures to the law’s incoherent formulation. The Article proposes a pair of filters that would enable courts to distinguish between those DRM measures that qualify for protection under Section 1201, and those that do not. The filters are shown to align with legislative intent and copyright precedent, as well as the approaches recently …
An Innovation-Centric Approach Of Telecommunications Infrastructure Regulation, Konstantinos Stylianou
An Innovation-Centric Approach Of Telecommunications Infrastructure Regulation, Konstantinos Stylianou
Konstantinos Stylianou
This paper considers the mechanics and role of innovation in telecommunications networks, and explains how regulation can be designed to maximize innovation. To better focus on the relationship between innovation and regulation an effort is made to distinguish innovation from competition, although the two concepts are closely related, and several reasons are presented on why the fast changing, networked and technical nature of telecommunications offers a very favorable environment for innovation to thrive, as well as why innovation benefits from a large number of actors. Moreover, the paper further explains that even small players are useful in the innovation process …

Demonstrating Contradictions In A Graphical User Interface, Umakant Mishra
Umakant Mishra
Designing a GUI is not so easy as it may appear to outside. The developer has to face many difficulties while improving the features of a GUI. In many cases improving one feature of a GUI results in worsening another feature of it, thus leading to a situation known as contradiction in TRIZ. Many such contradictions have been solved by different inventors in the past. We will demonstrate some important contradictions in this article and discuss alternative solutions for each contradiction.
Protecting Innovation In Computer Software, Biotechnology, And Nanotechnology, Dennis S. Karjala
Protecting Innovation In Computer Software, Biotechnology, And Nanotechnology, Dennis S. Karjala
Dennis S Karjala
In the 1970’s, paying virtually no attention to the fundamental distinction between patent and copyright subject matter, Congress decided to protect computer programs as a “literary work” under copyright law. As a result, a work of technology for the first time was consciously placed under the protective umbrella of a statute designed for art, music, and literature. While the vulnerability of computer program code to cheap and easy verbatim copying supplied a policy basis for “anti-copy” protection of code, courts often analogized these congressionally anointed “literary works” to broadly protected novels and plays rather than thinly protected technical specifications and …

Innovazione, Qualifiche, Salari: Una Rassegna Critica., Stefano Supino
Stefano Supino
This paper reviews recent developments in the analysis of innovation, skills and wages. It discuss some problems and puzzles affecting the emerging neoclassical literature on these topics. Several shortcoming are identified, from poor structural models to excessive reliance on traditional proxies of innovation activities. The paper claims that in investigating the skills and wages impact of innovation, mainstream economics lost some useful insight from Schumpeterian tradition. It concludes that a more correct approach to labour market impact of innovation could benefits from a recovery of Schumpeterian legacy and a more attentive use of Innovation Surveys as a tool to investigate …
