新聞:(2008年9月8日WBSCD- Bosch, Dupont and Xerox Join Eco-Patent Commons)Bosch, DuPont and Xerox Corporation have joined the Eco-Patent Commons, a first-of-its-kind business effort to help the environment by pledging environmentally-beneficial patents to the public domain. The three companies and founding member Sony pledge environmentally friendly patents to the public.

評析:
繼今年一月,IBM、Nokia、Sony與Pitney Bowe四家公司,在World Business Council for Sustainable Development(WBCSD),啟動Eco-Patent Commons(EPC)計畫後,近日WBSCD宣布,EPC計畫將再添三家生力軍,包括Bosch、Dupont與Xerox。總計,EPC計畫共掌握69個與環保及生態相關專利,完整列表如表一所示。

EPC計畫概念很簡單,加入會員單位,例如現在之七家公司,將自己手頭與環保相關專利授權給EPC計畫,EPC計畫則將會員及相關專利公布於網站上(算是某種社會形象)。會員公司或非會員公司,若是需要使用相關專利,則可透過EPC計畫授權機制,免費使用相關技術。雖然分享環保專利的企業不會有金錢上收入,但是EPC計畫認為透過此機制,節能與環保相關技術將能大幅進展,而這也算是企業社會責任(CSR)一部份吧。

原來專利也可做公益,讓生態技術創新動起來。身處全球ICT供應鏈關鍵環節的台灣廠商,你準備加入了嗎?
