Consumer Project on Technology

Consumer Project on Technology Profile and History

Our work is documented extensively on the CPTech web page. Currently CPTech is focusing on issues concerning the production of and access to knowledge, including medical inventions, information and cultural goods, and other knowledge goods. Much of this work concerns intellectual property policy and practices, but some of it concerns different approaches to the production of knowledge goods, inclu ding for example new business models that support creative individuals and communities, and new incentive systems for investments in medical and agricutural inventions, such as those involving prizes and/or competitive Intermediaries. We also do some work on electronic commerce and competition policy. CPTech works mostly in English, but requests for information in Spanish should be directed to Judit Rius Sanjuan, and requests for information in French should be directed to Manon Ress. Main Staff
