Samenvatting

With contributions from well-known academics and industry experts, this highly relevant Modern Guide presents an overview of patenting in the 21st century. It analyzes a wide range of cases to illustrate the continuous change in the use, application, and regulatory environment of the patent system.

Chapters explain key features of patent management and consider how the patent system may be used in combination with alternative protection means such as trade secrets. They examine specific challenges of patenting, including those presented by artificial intelligence, patent assertion entities, and the ongoing effects of COVID-19. Expert authors provide insights into the roles of standard essential patents and patent enforcement, highlighting key debates and revealing how patents can help address critical societal issues. Ultimately, the Modern Guide emphasizes the benefits of having a structured system to recognize and protect inventions, underscoring the need for ongoing regulatory reform to tackle the challenges of the 21st century.

A Modern Guide to Patents is an essential read for academics and students in intellectual property, economics of innovation, knowledge management, organizational innovation, and innovation policy. Its coverage of recent trends and cutting-edge perspectives also makes this an invaluable resource for patent practitioners, policy makers, economists, and lawyers.
