This book provides concise summaries and analyses of 28 leading global cases concerning the licensing of standards-essential patents on fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms. Cases are drawn from leading jurisdictions in global FRAND disputes across Asia, Europe, North America, and South America.

Chapters address topics including the determination of FRAND royalty rates nationally and globally, injunctions on FRAND-encumbered patents, and antitrust and competition law considerations. Authors explore cross-jurisdictional mechanisms such as anti-suit and anti-anti-suit injunctions and interim licenses, and analyze the background, holding, and implications of each case in detail, forming connections across cases, topics, and geographies. Contributions from leading legal academics can be read as stand-alone case analyses or as part of a wider tapestry of decisions.

Academics and students of competition and antitrust law, and intellectual property litigation will benefit from this book's valuable insights. It is also an essential resource for legal practitioners in patent litigation and international arbitration, in-house legal counsel and technology licensing personnel at technology companies, as well as those working at national patent offices and economic development agencies.
