And because when patent disputes occur, companies come to devise various measures, this study tried to examine those measures through an empirical analysis. As a result of the analysis, activities performed with obtained patents turned out to be patent barrier establishment, manufacturing, cross licensing, technology transfer, and royalties through licenses, in order. Coping measures in case of patent litigation turned out to be a counter-suit, patent invalidation suit, cross licensing, suit through solidarity with other firms, and patent right fee payment, in order.

Abstract


As globalization is accelerating, companies are making great efforts to grow. Thus, many companies are trying to make innovations, and their interest in patent, the result of innovations, is also increasing. Thus, this study tried to examine cases that companies registered study results from innovations as patents, and activities that they are doing with obtained patents. And because when patent disputes occur, companies come to devise various measures, this study tried to examine those measures through an empirical analysis. As a result of the analysis, activities performed with obtained patents turned out to be patent barrier establishment, manufacturing, cross licensing, technology transfer, and royalties through licenses, in order. Coping measures in case of patent litigation turned out to be a counter-suit, patent invalidation suit, cross licensing, suit through solidarity with other firms, and patent right fee payment, in order.
