Clean Tech Intellectual Property - Softcover
Synopsis
Clean Tech Intellectual Property authored by Eric L. Lane: Eco-marks, Green Patents, and Green Innovation, by Eric L. Lane, is the first comprehensive review of intellectual property and clean technology. It analyzes the interplay of clean technologies and IP regimes using industry trends, legal developments and case studies to demonstrate how IP law is influencing the growth of clean tech and how green business models are shaping IP practice. The book explains how clean tech companies can leverage green patents to create and expand their businesses and includes strategies and cases studies relating to prosecuting green patent applications, building green patent portfolios, and licensing clean technologies. The effects of significant green patent and trademark litigation on the clean tech industry are also examined. Special focus is given to issues of "eco-mark" prosecution and green branding, from the brand owner perspective and from a consumer protection standpoint, including a discussion of "greenwashing." The book critically examines clean tech IP policies and discusses the international debate over the role of IP in efforts to curb global climate change.

Review
Eric Lane has a masterful grasp on the legal issues and challenges surrounding the intersection of clean technology innovation and intellectual property. He carefully segments the topic into its component pieces for a thorough and fair discussion. This book is the new green tech IP bible."" --Carl Horton, Chief IP Counsel, General Electric Company
In this interesting and informative book, Eric Lane reviews the key legal and policy issues raised by intellectual property in the area of clean technology, and makes a strong case for the importance of IP rights to clean tech entrepreneurs. Lane offers a very readable analysis of how current IP legal doctrine in the U.S., as well as the international debate over transfer of clean technology, will likely shape ownership rights in clean tech. His arguments are thoughtful, fair, and grounded in case law, statistics, and his experience as a practitioner of clean tech IP."" --Arti Rai, Elvin R. Latty Professor of Law, Duke University School of Law
Eric Lane has made a very valuable, extremely readable, and thoroughly enjoyable contribution to the field of clean technology and intellectual property that will help readers who are not already familiar with the topics to understand why these issues matter and to get a very good feel for patent and trademark issues that are raised."" --Joshua D. Sarnoff, The IP Law Book Review
