Abstract

We show that under a fixed-fee licensing contract if the licenser and the licensee bargain over the licensing fee, licensing decreases (increases) innovation by decreasing (increasing) the strategic (non-strategic) benefit from innovation. However, licensing increases innovation under a two-part tariff licensing contract. Licensing does not reduce social welfare.
