Intellectual Property and Routes to Market Sample Clauses

Intellectual Property and Routes to Market. This chapter explores the mechanisms for licensing research outcomes that meet the preservation needs of audiovisual archives; we explore these mechanisms from the perspective of each of the main stakeholder groups, The Archivist, The Researcher and The Vendor (a company that supplies a product to meet the preservation need). At a high level we look at the influencing factors that will drive a decision on how to acquire a new technology, looking specifically at the research to delivery chain from applied research projects to open source adoption to buying a product ‘off the shelf’. The aim is to provide the reader with a useful perspective that will aid in the decision making process when considering how IP is developed and licensed, the various approaches that can be taken to acquiring a solution to preservation needs and how to approach such things as commercial license negotiation. At the centre of the Audiovisual Archiving world exists a conundrum: the scale of the technical challenges faced by audiovisual archives is large and permanent but the number of players is relatively small and their budgets cyclical. These are not the attributes of an addressable marketplace that is commercially attractive to many companies and therefore requires that the approaches taken to solving the challenges faced by archives must spread wider to collaborative research, adaptation of useful open source technology and even exploring entirely new ‘digital’ business models in a drive to offset current costs against future value.
