This open access edited book captures the complexities and
conflicts arising at the interface of intellectual property rights
(IPR) and competition law. To do so, it discusses four specific
themes: (a) policies governing functioning of standard setting
organizations (SSOs), transparency and incentivising future
innovation; (b) issue of royalties for standard essential patents
(SEPs) and related disputes; (c) due process principles, procedural
fairness and best practices in competition law; and (d) coherence
of patent policies and consonance with competition law to support
innovation in new technologies. Many countries have formulated
policies and re-oriented their economies to foster technological
innovation as it is seen as a major source of economic growth. At
the same time, there have been tensions between patent laws and
competition laws, despite the fact that both are intended to
enhance consumer welfare. In this regard, licensing of SEPs has
been debated extensively, although in most instances, innovators
and implementers successfully negotiate licensing of SEPs. However,
there have been instances where disagreements on royalty base and
royalty rates, terms of licensing, bundling of patents in licenses,
pooling of licenses have arisen, and this has resulted in a surge
of litigation in various jurisdictions and also drawn the attention
of competition/anti-trust regulators. Further, a lingering lack of
consensus among scholars, industry experts and regulators regarding
solutions and techniques that are apposite in these matters across
jurisdictions has added to the confusion. This book looks at the
processes adopted by the competition/anti-trust regulators to apply
the principles of due process and procedural fairness in
investigating abuse of dominance cases against innovators.
