Licensing under convex costs
Mukherjee, Arijit
Authors
Abstract
We show that both the outside and inside innovators license a new product (or drastic process innovation) to all potential licensees in the presence of convex costs, which occur under decreasing returns to scale technologies. An implication of our analysis is that a monopolist producer may prefer technology licensing in a homogeneous goods industry. We also show that an inside innovator's incentive for innovation may be higher than that of an outside innovator. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Wien.
