In the latest issue of the World Intellectual Property Organization‘s monthly magazine, Don Rosenberg, executive vice president and general counsel for Qualcomm Incorporated, writes about the history of invention and innovation and points out that consumers may understand more than some policy makers the legal and economic framework that promotes technological advances.
