Series on Technology Management: Exploiting Intellectual Property to Promote Innovation and Create Value (ePub)

-->There are two traditional views of the role of intellectual property (IP) within the field of innovation management: in innovation management research, as an indicator or proxy for innovation inputs or outputs, e.g. patents or licensing income; or in innovation management practice, as a means of protecting knowledge. Exploiting Intellectual Property to Promote Innovation and Create Value argues that whilst both of these perspectives are useful, neither capture the full potential contribution of intellectual property in innovation management research and practice.The management of IP has become a central challenge in current strategies of Open Innovation and Business Model Innovation, but there is relatively little empirical work available. Theoretical arguments and empirical research suggest that from both an innovation policy and management perspective, the challenge is to use IP to encourage risk-taking and innovation, and that a broader repertoire of strategies is necessary to create and capture the economic and social benefits of innovation. This book identifies how intellectual property can be harnessed to create and capture value through exploiting new opportunities for innovation. It is organized around three related themes: public policies for IP; firm strategies for IP; and creating value from IP, and offers insights from the latest research on IP strategies and practices to create and capture the economic and social benefits of innovation. -->Contents:Introduction (Joe Tidd)Public Policies for Intellectual Property:Appropriation and Appropriability in Open Source Software (Linus Dahlander)Formal Institutional Contexts as Ownership of Intellectual Property Rights and Their Implications for the Organization of Commercialization of Innovations at Universities — Comparative Data from Sweden and the United Kingdom (Peter Lindelöf)Open for Business: Universities, Entrepreneurial Academics and Open Innovation (Allen T Alexander, Kristel Miller and Sean Fielding)Repurposing Pharmaceuticals: Does United States Intellectual Property Law and Regulatory Policy Assign Sufficient Value to New Use Patents?
