What were the issues?
Licensor of the “pool” carries the potential liability for all technology donors.
Can the technology donors be indemnified and by whom?
Governing law – where?
The focus was on mitigating risks – not on supporting innovation.
Very high transaction costs to coordinate all parties.
A vehicle for partnershipsFoundationsSeed companies

Lessons we’ve learned at PIPRA• Don’t underestimate the transaction costs.• Remember the complexity – technologically, socially,
economically, politically.• Support the interface between public and private sectors • Step away from ideology and look for practical solutions• Support partnerships – north-south, south-south, public-
public, private-private, public-private, etc. • Many IPR ‘solutions’ presented so far are overly simplistic
and unlikely to have the desired impact.

Developing a proactive patent pool that mines portfolios and builds translational partnerships
The Global Responsibility Innovation Alliance (GRIA) provides an interface between the well-resourced engines of innovation in developed countries and the technological needs of the poor.
We can make technologies and knowledge more accessible for pro-poor applications while still preserving commercial markets. But we need good legal tools, and tailored practical solutions.
We can connect partners that will develop and deploy technologies that improve the lives of the poor. But we need a broker to catalyze partnerships.
We can create practical technological solutions to the problems of poverty. But we need better coordination and communication among technology providers, engineers, deployment partners, designers, and the people that use the technology.
![Page 21: Bennett open access_7-31-10](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061110/5452854baf7959bb0c8b6068/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Making Solutions AccessibleThe GRIA was founded on the understanding that technology providers want to fulfill their roles as global citizens in contributing to the reduction of poverty, but they face three major hurdles:
They don’t know specifically how to help; there is a lack of good information translating the high-level needs of global poverty into specific contributions of technology and expertise.
The risks are hard to manage; significant risks exist (related to markets, liability, and IP rights) that need to be mitigated with tailored legal and institutional tools.
Partnerships are not easy to build; finding the right partners (often NGOs or public sector partners) and structuring deals for success can be challenging and involve high transaction costs.
As members of the GRIA, companies and research organizations benefit from access to expertise in legal tools and commercialization strategies tailored to provide practical solutions to overcome all of these hurdles.

Global Responsibility Licensing
Our legal tools are built from a growing body of practice creating access to technologies to benefit the poor. Global Responsibility Licensing is designed to make IP available for humanitarian uses while managing institutional risk and preserving protection for commercial uses. These humanitarian uses are differentiated from commercial or emerging market uses.
![Page 24: Bennett open access_7-31-10](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061110/5452854baf7959bb0c8b6068/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Global Responsibility Partnerships
Whenever IP or knowledge is being applied to the problems of the poor, good partnerships are the key to achieving impact. As we work to increase access to IP for development uses through Global Responsibility Licensing, we also must provide opportunities to identify partners, build strong pro-poor partnerships, think strategically about commercialization, and enable knowledge transfer.
Sharing knowledge is an integral part of technology transfer; it can be critical for the successful pro-poor application of IP, and the transfer of know-how alone can achieve high levels of impact. But it can be challenging for companies to find the right partners, identify the needs, and navigate the partnerships necessary to implement a successful technical philanthropy program.
Through its dual focus on both Global Responsibility Licensing and on catalyzing partnerships, the GRIA offers the potential to support applications of technology and knowledge to address the needs of the poor.

ActionIdentify potential pro-poor applications of technologies.
Support companies, universities, and research institutes in identifying opportunities for knowledge transfer.
Facilitate due diligence and partner selection for product development and deployment partners.
Support the development of partnerships among technology providers, product development and deployment partners, and technical philanthropy partners.
Develop commercialization strategies and evaluate opportunities around specific technologies.
Create reporting mechanisms for monitoring success of partnerships.
