What is the patent open licensing system?

Patent opening license means that the right holder voluntarily submits an opening license statement to the state patent administration department after obtaining the patent right, stipulating the license fee, which will be announced by the state patent administration department. During the period of patent opening license, anyone can implement patented technological achievements according to the conditions of patent opening license. Although patent open license belongs to the category of general license in essence, it has many characteristics and advantages different from general patent license.

In short, the patent open licensing system has the following characteristics and advantages:

1, which is conducive to promoting the docking between the supply and demand sides of patent technology, building a platform for patent transformation and popularization and application for patentees and the public, effectively reducing the legal risks related to patent status in patent licensing transactions, and promoting the wider dissemination and application of patents in universities and research institutes;

2. Only the demander can obtain the patent license with an open, reasonable and non-discriminatory license fee and in a convenient way, which not only reduces the difficulty of license negotiation, but also improves the licensee's willingness to transform patents, which is conducive to enterprises to carry out more patent commercialization activities;

3. This will help to improve and strengthen patent protection. The implementation of patent open license means that the economic value of patent right as intangible assets has become a specific patent license fee, and the public's attention and participation will be greatly improved;

4. Opening patent license means giving full play to the market competition mechanism, allowing the market to provide more new products and technologies with good quality and low price, and also benefiting the public.

It can be seen that patent open license has the characteristics of openness, enjoyment, fairness and voluntariness. The establishment of patent open licensing system will help reduce transaction costs and risks, enable technology demanders to obtain patent licenses in an open, reasonable and non-discriminatory license fee and in a convenient way, and weaken the information asymmetry between technology suppliers and demanders and related markets. Establishing patent open licensing system and promoting the connection between supply and demand is not only an important measure to encourage patent transformation and application, but also an important institutional innovation to promote the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements.
