Exploring the relationship between competition law and technology pools, this book provides general purpose details of the Biotechnology Patent Pool scheme while discussing historical developments, approaches of the US Deptartment of Justice (DOJ), Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the European Union Competition Commission via EU regulations. In addition to these regulatory approaches and evolution in concept and theory of technology pools, this book illustrates relationship issues including tying arrangements and essential facility consideration vis-à-vis technology pools. It analyses the modalities of forming such pools in area of biotechnology, specifically illustrating that the formation of technology pools is possible and can be safely undertaken, and proposes a viable solution and structure.
