Implementing FRAND standards in Open Source: Business as usual or mission impossible?

The last workshop on IPR and standardisation organized by DG Enterprise and Industry focused on Open Source and FRAND.

Are royalty-free technologies the only compatible with Open Source development? The workshop addressed the possibilities of developing open software using fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory terms (FRAND) licenses.

This workshop belongs to the series of events organized by the Commission to increase transparency and predictability in IPR treatment.

The event was held in the premises of the European Commission in Brussels (Madou Plaza Tower, 1 Place Madou, 1210 Saint-Josse-ten-Noode) on 22 November 2012.
