Spotting Software Innovation in a Patent Assertion Entity World

This paper looks at the relationship between venture capital (VC) funds and patent assertion entity (PAE). These two types of entities rely heavily on patents most particularly in the software industry. This paper analyzes this relationship and argues that VC funds have fed into the PAE phenomenon. This paper also argues that PAE have impacted how VCs behave. It offers an empirical analysis: as PAE have become more active, VCs provide more funds to the companies they back. This paper closes by discussing what VCs have done and could do to address PAEs and their activities
