- Title
Private and public approaches to patent hold-up in industry standard setting.
- Authors
Simcoe, Timothy S.
- Abstract
The article discusses the role of standard setting organizations (SSOs) in promoting industry-wide investments in technologies which may be patentable as of March 2012, focusing on the steps that SSOs can take to mitigate potential patent hold-up issues. The disclosure of patents and the negotiation of royalty rates prior to the selection of a standard are two of the reported solutions for patent hold-up problems.
