LEVERAGING IP


On a recent visit to Oxford, the city of dreaming spires and the home of Oxford University Press, the IPKat picked up a charming little book that does not seem to have received much publicity among intellectual property enthusiasts. Entitled Intellectual Property Rights, External Effects and Anti-trust Law, it is an objective version of what must surely be Ilkka Rahnasto's account of how, with a big enough portfolio of IP rights, a company such as Nokia can force its way into the lucrative US telecommunications market. Don't be put off by the fact that Rahnasto is a lawyer with Nokia: the book is a well-written and scholarly account of the subject, with well-referenced discussion of both US and EU law. What a shame it is not better known within the IP field.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
