Abstract

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) are one of the arsenals of the ICT firms to attain competitive advantage. About 250,000 patents have been granted by the US Patent and Trademark office to just 5 ICT firms (IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, Google, and Apple). Software has been traditionally copyrighted and the accompanying exclusive rights created near monopolies such as Microsoft and Apple in the ICT space. However, there are movements such as Free and Open-Source Software, Copyright and patent commons have disrupted the IPR regime and have created compulsively newer methods of nurturing creativity and innovation. This chapter will address the following questions, in the ever-evolving field of IPR.
  • Should the IP policies encourage patenting?
  • How can market power of patent holder be regulated?
  • Should software programs be allowed to be patented?
  • What should be the policies regarding integration of IPR and standardization?
