Tiivistelmä:This article examines the effect of patent pools on company performance in innovation. While prior research on alliances generally suggests that patent pools enhance company innovation, this study finds the opposite. Analyzing data on systemic innovation in the global optical disc industry, it is found that patent pool formation significantly decreases both the quantity and quality of patents subsequently generated by licensors and licensees relative to the patenting activity of nonparticipants. The empirical findings propose that patent pools prevent systemic innovation by participating companies.
