In this study, we are keen to understand the role of intellectual property (IP) and particularly, its usage by firms innovating for a sustainable future. Unfortunately, little is known about how IP impacts sustainability transitions. To contribute to a better understanding, we chose to investigate IP usage by award - winning green innovators. We study the winners of the European Inventor Award, a highly prestigious international prize, awarded annually by the European Patent Office since 2006. Among all 210 awardees, we identified 52 winners that we classified as green innovators. Our analysis shows that closed and semi-open IP, particularly non-exclusive licensing, are the preferred IP strategies for green innovations. The IP strategy preferences seem to vary across technology domains.

    Unlocking Untapped Value, EPO SME Case Studies on IP Strategy and IP

    Unlocking untapped value EPO SME case studies on IP strategy and IP management EPO SME CASE STUDIES | FOREWORD Dear readers, A thriving SME sector is widely accepted as one of the building blocks of a compe- titive and sustainable economy. With ambitious ideas and innovative solutions, small and medium-sized enterprises are often attributed with injecting great energy and productivity into both traditional and new sectors. The EPO’s mission is to support such innovators, as well as the European economy as a whole, by providing robust patents and access to published patent information. But if the power of such IP is to be fully exploited, a better understanding needs to be created about how patent protection and information can be used effectively by innovative companies, regardless of their size, sector or location. The EPO has therefore produced this series of case studies to highlight how some SMEs are effectively leveraging the power of patents to help achieve business success. These 12 case studies have been put together to include a cross section of SMEs from across Europe, encompassing 11 of our member states, and ranging in size and sector. They provide comprehensive accounts of the different ways in which IP is playing an integral role in the development of some enterprises. The examples show how SMEs are using patents as a powerful tool to support their corporate strategy and even, in some cases, as the very foundation on which to build their business. For some, patents defend an SME’s technologies in a highly competitive sector, or help it to truly stand apart from other technologies in the field.

At the outset, Bosch worked with two associates to construct and install all kinds of electrical equipment, such as telephone systems and electric bells. However, the company’s startup capital of 10,000 German marks was soon used up and they had to rely on loans. Robert Bosch invested most of the company's small earnings in modern machines. He later described his first years as a self- employed businessman as a “shambles”. The construction of the electric power station in Stuttgart in 1895 was one factor that helped the young company on the road to economic recovery by creating new jobs for its installation business. The second factor was the magneto ignition device, which had already become a linchpin in the company’s economic success. Bosch and the magneto ignition device Sept 7, 2020 In 1887, Robert Bosch had been approached by a customer and asked to Page 2 of 13 produce a magneto ignition device based on a model made by the engine manufacturer Deutz in Cologne.

Změnil trochu svůj zevnějšek, stejně tak jako se od posledního vydání změnila organizační struktura divize. Rozvoj elektronických systémů v automobilech a mílovými kroky postupující expanze systémů elektronického obchodování a internetu mění charakter nabídky výrobců a distributorů autopříslušenství. V souladu s tím došlo ve firmě BOSCH ke spojení divizí autopříslušenství a diagnostiky. Zákazník dnes od nás může získat z jedné ruky vše potřebné k provozu autoservisu: náhradní díly, diagnostiku a další vybavení pro autoservis, informační systémy, ucelenou nabídku služeb, školení a poradenství.
