Intellectual property is a vital part of the global economy,
accounting for about half of the GDP in countries like the United
States. Innovation, competition, economic growth and jobs can all
be helped or hurt by different approaches to this key asset class,
where seemingly slight changes in the rules of the game can have
remarkable impact. This book brings together diverse perspectives
from the fields of law, economics, business and political science
to explore the ways varying approaches to intellectual property can
positively and negatively impact our economy and society. Employing
approaches that are both theoretically rigorous and grounded in the
real world, Perspectives on Commercializing Innovation is well
suited for practising lawyers, managers, lawmakers and analysts, as
well as academics conducting research or teaching in a range of
courses in law schools, business schools and economics departments,
at either the undergraduate or graduate level.
The events that began with the collapse of Enron, WorldCom, Tyco,
and Adelphia and continued into the financial crisis of 2008 teach
us an important lesson: corporate governance matters. Although it
is widely acknowledged that good corporate governance is a linchpin
of good corporate performance, how can one improve corporate
governance and its impact on corporate and overall economic
performance. This book offers a diverse and forward-looking set of
approaches from experts, covering the major areas of corporate
governance reform and analyzing the full range of issues and
concerns. Written to be both theoretically rigorous and grounded in
the real world, the book is well suited for practicing lawyers,
managers, lawmakers, and analysts, as well as academics conducting
research or teaching a wide range of courses in law schools,
business schools, and economics departments.
