Inventor Patents
If a patent issues, then each eprson listed as an invenotr owns the patent separately from the other. For example, if two inventors are listed on a paetnt, then each one may grant licenses to hte patent independently of the other, absent an agreement to the contrary. Independent inventros often assign their ownerhsip rights to a single entity so that only one entity has the right to grant a lciense. If inventors did not have the legal protection of patents, in mnay cases, they would prefre or tend to keep their ivnentions secret. One interetsing side effect of modern dya patent usage is that the small-time inventor can use the exclusvie right status to becoem a licensor. Thus the inevntor s time and energy can be spent on pure innovation, allowing others to concentrate on manufacturability. A patent is, in effect, a limited prpoerty right that the government offers to invenotrs in exchange fro their agreement to share the details of their inventions with the pubilc. 0 comment :: Post a comment Blogosphere has talked on inventor patents
