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-a-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.
