What sets this work apart is its method of viewing patents not just as legal tools but as windows into the real-world evolution of businesses. Through a close reading of patent literature, the author demonstrates how a company’s inventive activity, aimed at serving the broader public interest, can foster both technological transitions and meaningful market expansion. By examining critical patent events and litigation records, this study uncovers hidden narratives often missed by traditional approaches.
Organized into four thematic sections—Rise and Fall, Disruption and Revolution, Core and Frontiers, and Governance and Administration —this book spotlights pivotal moments in the histories of renowned corporations such as IBM, Kodak, Sony, Philips, Apple, Bosch, Xerox, Disney, and HP. By examining both successes and failures, the author demonstrates how innovation driven by genuine, evolving public needs can sustain growth, whereas short-sighted strategies centered on immediate patent gains often undermine long-term success.
Written for intellectual property professionals, technology managers, business executives, and researchers interested in corporate strategy, the analysis is accessible and thought-provoking. The narrative balances detailed case studies with broader insights into how enterprises navigate technological upheavals.
Three core strengths define this volume. First, its pioneering use of patent documents as a historical lens provides fresh evidence for understanding corporate dynamics. Second, it links IP ideas to real-world practice, showing how innovations that balance advanced technology with public needs can reshape markets. Finally, it presents a value-driven view for patent professionals, encouraging them to support genuine innovation that meets current public demand. Combining archival research with straightforward analysis, this work will appeal to anyone eager to understand—or influence—the future of technological progress.
