THE EMERGENCE OF STANDARD ESSENTIAL PATENTS IN THE CONUMDRUM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY DISPUTES

Anjana Krishna Mohan

Abstract :

 An economy devoid of monopolistic market tendencies in an effort to pave way to start up companies and ultimately, serve the consumers was the motto of a liberalized economy. With the advancement in the arena of intellectual property, the rights of the owners were the need of the hour. Any violation of such rights was reprimanded. In this regard, the concept of ‘Standard essential Patents‘ was adopted. This paper seeks to inform the readers about the concept of Standard Essential Patents and its relevance and its connections with the growing intellectual property market, establishing a symbiotic relationship with the FRAND terms and the antitrust policies to capitalize original and innovative products. The paper also cites a variety of cases which portray both sides of the same coin, successful adoption and where its essence was misunderstood.
