Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 174 / Monday, September 11, 2023 / Notices
6. Are there specific U.S. intellectual
property laws or policies that inhibit
growth of SMEs that rely on licensing
and implementing standards?
7. Which, if any, actions would be
advisable for the Department of
Commerce to further explore regarding
the interplay of intellectual property
and standards, including but not limited
to:
a. educational guidance to SMEs to
become more involved in standards;
b. recommendations for standards
development organizations regarding
intellectual property policies and
enforcement thereof;
c. a database of judicially determined
or otherwise voluntarily-made-public
licensing rates for technologies covered
by a FRAND commitment; and
d. other voluntary and/or public
disclosures?
8. How can the Department of
Commerce reinforce the importance of
IP-based incentives for participation in
international technology standards
development, especially around critical
and emerging technologies?
9. What can the Department of
Commerce do to mitigate emergence or
facilitate the resolution of FRAND
licensing disputes? Can requiring
further transparency concerning patent
ownership make standard essential
patent (SEP) licensing more efficient?
What are other impediments to reaching
a FRAND license that the Department of
Commerce could address through policy
or regulation?
10. Are there steps that the
Department of Commerce can take
regarding intellectual property rights
policy that will help advance U.S.
leadership in standards development
and implementation for critical and
emerging technologies?
11. Do policy solutions that would
require SEP holders to agree collectively
on rates or have parties rely on joint
negotiation to reach FRAND license
agreements with SEP holders create
legal risks? Are there other concerns
with these solutions?
12. What can the Department of
Commerce do to help facilitate the
efficient resolution of FRAND disputes?
What can the Department of Commerce
do with the World Intellectual Property
Organization and/or standard setting
bodies to promote alternative dispute
resolution to more efficiently resolve
FRAND disputes?
Katherine K. Vidal,
Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual
Property and Director of the United States
Patent and Trademark Office.
