SUMMARY:Análisis del Dictamen Preliminar de la COFECE sobre el Mercado de Comercio Electrónico en México
DESCRIPTION:Analysis of Mexico’s Federal Commission of Economic Competition’s (COFECE) Preliminary Report on the Retail E-Commerce Market in Mexico\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				La Autoridad Investigadora de la Comisión Federal de Competencia Económica de México (COFECE) publicó\, a principios de este año\, un Dictamen Preliminar sobre sus hallazgos tras el análisis de potenciales barreras de entrada a la libre competencia en el mercado minorista de comercio electrónico. Esta investigación se basa en el artículo 94 de la Ley Federal de Competencia Económica de México\, que permite imponer medidas regulatorias para abordar problemas estructurales sin imponer sanciones económicas a los agentes. \nLe extendemos una cordial invitación a asistir a este panel en el que se analizará exhaustivamente estos hallazgos\, las medidas sugeridas por la Autoridad Investigadora y el proceso mediante el cual México puede imponer este tipo de medidas.  \nConsulta el folleto arriba para obtener más información.

SUMMARY:Transparency in SEP Licensing: Patent Pools\, LNGs and the Competition Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Of the various concerns surrounding the licensing of standard essential patents (SEPs)\, the lack of transparency has been at the center of attention\, whether it be the recently withdrawn Draft SEP Regulation in the EU or the UKIPO’s Consultation on SEPs. In each of the instances\, the focus of the agencies has been on bringing greater transparency to the disclosure and licensing of SEPs\, and one of the means by which some transparency has been achieved in recent years is patent pools. Since the turn of the decade\, patent pools have gained acceptance\, not just with SEP holders and implementers but also courts around the world. However\, recent months have witnessed the emergence of licensing negotiation groups (LNGs) as a counter to patent pools created by groups of SEP holders\, while also sparking concerns regarding buyer cartels; the Automotive LNG a case in point. \nThis discussion with industry experts focused on the role of patent pools and LNGs in addressing information asymmetry and the lack of transparency in SEP licensing\, while participants also deliberated on the competition agencies’ perspective on the two. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Moderator: Prof. (Dr.) Manveen Singh (Professor & Associate Dean\, Jindal Global Law School) \nPanelists: \nMr. Eric Stasik (Director\, Avvika AB\, Sweden) \nMr. Nishant Sharma (Lead Counsel\, Dolby India – Patent Licensing & Litigation) \nDr. Payal Malik (Visiting Professor\, ICRIER and Former Advisor and Head Economics\, Competition Commission of India)
