Research Abstract |
Patents allow the right-holder to monopolize the use of technology for a certain period in return for disclosing it. This study examined how the balance between the disclosure of technological information and rights given to the patent-holder affects R&D activities and the diffusion of technology, with a focus on prior user rights. Strong prior user rights allow lead innovators to use a new technology without having to obtain a patent, thus encouraging R&D. On the other hand, strong prior user rights slow the diffusion of technology. The relative sizes of these effects depend on the market structure.
