Patent holders are increasingly making voluntary, public
commitments to limit the enforcement and other exploitation of
their patents. The best-known form of patent pledge is the
so-called FRAND commitment, in which a patent holder commits to
license patents to manufacturers of standardized products on terms
that are ''fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory.'' Patent
pledges have also been appearing in fields well beyond technical
standard-setting, including open source software, green technology
and the biosciences. This book explores the motivations, legal
characteristics and policy goals of these increasingly popular
private ordering tools. Jorge Contreras and Meredith Jacob bring
together work by more than a dozen international experts who
examine the phenomenon of patent pledges from a variety of
perspectives and analytical frameworks. The book assesses patent
pledges as mechanisms for facilitating platform promotion, open
innovation, economic development and environmental sustainability.
Legal practitioners who are involved in intellectual property
licensing, litigation and business transactions will find this book
a key resource, as will in-house lawyers and managers at firms
engaged in technology development and standardization. It will also
be a key reference for scholars in law, economics, business and
political science. Contributors include: C. Asay, B. Awad, M.
Bohannon, M. Callahan, J. Contreras, D. Greenbaum, M. Jacob, Y.
Kim, M. Maggiolino, C. Maracke, A. Metzger, L. Montagnani, J.
Schultz, S. Scott, T. Sebastian, N. Shanahan, R. Sichel, R.
