"We need to seamlessly integrate IPR in the standard
graduate/post graduate courses in science, technology, commerce,
creative arts, etc., without over burdening the students with
law"
-Dr Prabuddha Ganguli, CEO, VISION-IPR
Nanotechnology Intellectual Property Rights: Research, Design, and
Commercialization offers an overview of the dynamics of development
and commercialization in nanotech, where strategic integration of
IP, R&D, and commercialization has become imperative. It
demystifies issues of intellectual property rights (IPR) associated
with research, design, technology transfer, and commercialization
of innovations in technology-led areas such as nanotech."
Gives all stakeholders vital information to instill confidence
by helping them better understand their individual roles in the IPR
process"
Designed for a diverse readership that may not have background
knowledge of the legal nuances of IPR, this book clearly
articulates techno-legal aspects of nano-related innovations to aid
their effective integration into businesses. This resource stands
apart by using numerous case studies and pictorial illustrations,
addressing aspects ranging from ideation to commercialization of
IP-enabled nanotechnology. It illustrates the evolving patent
landscape in nanotechnology, explores the international patent
classification system, and details patenting procedures in a range
of jurisdictions, including search for nanotechnology prior art and
creation of search strategies.
The authors discuss patent-led nanotechnology businesses,
presenting a wide range of case studies that address construction
of valuable patent portfolios, growth of start-ups, and
consolidation of IP-led nanobusinesses through mergers,
acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic investments, etc. They also
cover patent litigations in nanotechnologies and the significance
of strategically crafting agreements related to IP transactions. In
addition, they address compliance with contractual obligations, the
importance of well-drafted patent specifications, and sensitive
aspects of conducting techno-legal due diligence prior to the
development and marketing of products. Also covered are
vulnerabilities in challenging/defending the validity of patents
and negotiating settlements.
Integrating use of the IPRinternalise(r) model for capacity
building in human and infrastructural resources, the authors assess
the future of IP landscaping in nanotechnology. Here, they focus on
patentability, public perception of risks to health and ecosystems,
institutionalized management of intellectual property rights, and
the steps that will be necessary to meet these and other such
challenges on the way to realizing profits in nanotech.
