We study the blocking effect of patents on follow-on innovation by others. We posit that follow-on innovation requires … patents on low-value original innovations, invalidation predominantly increases low-value followon innovation outside the … contrast, for patents on high-value original innovations, invalidation mainly increases high-value follow-on innovation in the …
