Does streamlining the pool formation process imply that all standards that result in a pool license will all have the same terms and conditions?
No. To the extent reasonable, having common terms and conditions across various pool licenses will increase efficiency and minimize certain time-to-market issues; however, each technology or pool will have unique characteristics which would make a “cookie cutter” approach to licensing impractical and inappropriate. While licensors of the pool decide on the terms of pools, Via Licensing’s experience in pool development and administration will be invaluable in helping licensors strike the right balance to ensure market-appropriate terms. While IEEE is not involved in any way in negotiations with companies, the experience of IEEE in developing robust processes, achieving balance, and supporting reasonable and non-discriminatory outcomes will support the development of streamlining guidelines that Via will apply.
