Innovation Excellence | Intel to Universities: No Patents, Please, Just Open Source



In Intel's own words:

"The IP policies and practices within the ISTCs will typically be designed to level the playing field for all of the participants, thereby enhancing cooperation and open collaboration.  The preferred IP policy is to conduct open research wherein ISTC researchers, whether from academia or Intel, agree to not file patents and to publish all patentable inventions.  All significant software developed in the course of conducting research will be released under an open source license."
