Synopsis

Standardisation, standard-setting organisations and standard-essential patents have been the subject of considerable discussion and debate in both academic and policy circles. At this event which was co-organized with the Association for Competition Economics (ACE), Pierre Régibeau presented his recent study, which assesses problems related to the standardization process and consider a number of policy options that might help alleviate these problems. His presentation was followed by panel discussion on the associated challenges and their potential solutions.
