Chapter 7: “Structure, Function and Governance”

[Summary of Chapter 7]:

Chapter 7 is a continuation of the description of the 3G Patent Platform, describing specific bodies within the aggregated licensing administrator.  The structure, roles, functions, and governance of each body are explained.  A comparison is made between two different royalty models – a high royalty model without aggregated licensing, and a low royalty model with aggregated licensing.  These models are not merely theoretical, because in industries with fragmented ownership of essential IP, royalty rates can run as high as 30% or more for companies that do not have their IP to cross-trade.
