United States: FTC resolves Intel concerns

Monday, 1 June 1998

The FTC settlement in the Intel/Digital matter continues the US antitrust enforcement agencies’ activist stance in the area of intellectual property rights. The agencies will closely examine the transfer of such rights between significant competitors, particularly where the transfer results from an out-of-court resolution of intellectual property litigation. As a result, parties should structure such arrangements so as to ensure that they do not unreasonably restrict opportunities and incentives for product and technological innovation.
