Details

This second edition of the Research Handbook on Intellectual Property (IP) Licensing explores the multiple facets of IP licensing law from a global and comparative perspective through the opinions of leading experts.

The Handbook combines an in-depth analysis of various specific types of IP licensing agreements (including FRAND licensing of Standard Essential Patents and data licensing) with a presentation of other topics of both dogmatic and practical relevance affecting all types of IP licensing transactions, including competition law and bankruptcy law. The Handbook goes beyond the analysis of classical substantive issues and discusses the treatment of IP licensing under international investment law and the use of commercial arbitration for solving international IP licensing disputes.

The Handbook ultimately aims to offer a scholarly contribution to the development of global or regional IP licensing laws and policies. By opening innovative transversal, comparative and policy perspectives, this Handbook will appeal to a wide audience including IP practitioners, lawyers and IP and contract law scholars globally.
