In recent times, commercial activities of companies exercising
market power through their intellectual property rights have
increasingly come under the scrutiny of the EU competition
authorities. Intellectual Property and Competition Law: New
Frontiers looks at how the leveraging strategies of Microsoft, the
patent enhancement strategies of Astra Zeneca and Rambus, and the
reverse payment settlements in the pharmaceutical sector have all
attracted competition intervention, and how the courts have been
forced to decide whether intellectual property issues are the
primary subject matter of the case, or peripheral to that.
Drawing on these judgments, and others, this timely book brings
together leading figures from practice and from academia who
examine the increasingly complex and often strained relationship
between intellectual property and competition law. Focusing
primarily on EU law, but with valuable insight into US law, they
highlight areas where new frontiers are emerging in the interface
between the two, including; refusal to grant access to trade
secrets; the new product test in consumer welfare; competition law
in the pharmaceutical sector; standard setting; and FRAND (Fair,
Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory terms) commitments. The book also
considers the way in which the Commission's proposed changes to the
application of Article 102 EC may impact on the protection of
intellectual property rights.
In the post-Microsoft litigation era, this timely book captures the
range of current thinking on the subject. The impressive list of
contributors brings together leading figures from academia and
practice, from intellectual property and competition law, and from
law and economics, offering unrivalled expert analysis of this
complex area.
