This authoritative book from one of the top experts in the field sets out a detailed and practical analysis of the complex and often fraught relationship between EU competition rules and intellectual property rights (IPRs).
Beginning with a primer on the general principles that underpin intellectual property and competition law, the book then provides exhaustive coverage of the application of Article 101 TFEU on anticompetitive agreements to IP licensing. Detailed treatment of licensing agreements includes; agreements under the Technology Transfer Block Exemption regulation (TTBER); agreements outside of the scope of the TTBER, such as multilateral licences, pooling agreements and settlement agreements; horizontal agreements such as those relating to R&D; and vertical agreements such as those relating to distribution and franchising.
