The Center for the Study of the Public Domain invites you to the following Information Ecology lecture. Apologies for cross-postings.

Professor Eric von Hippel of the MIT Sloan School of Management:
"Democratizing Innovation and Norms-based Intellectual Property Rights"

Date: 09/22/05
Time: 12:15 p.m.
Location: Duke Law School, Room 3043
Lunch will be served

Innovation is increasingly becoming "democratized" as users develop products for themselves. Many freely reveal what they have developed to a commons. Others, however, appear to assert some rights to their innovations on the basis of community social norms. Professor von Hippel will provide an overview of democratized innovation, and then describe a case study of informal recipe rights expectations among French chefs.

Von Hippel is Head of the Technological Innovation and Entrepreneurship Group at the MIT Sloan School of Management. His research is focused on the nature and economics of "distributed" innovation.

This lecture is open to all. Boxed lunches will be available for the first eighty people who come to the lecture. Please feel free to forward this announcement to anyone who may be interested in attending.
