Titre : An exploratory Study of Bridges between Invention, Innovation and Intellectual Property Rights Auteurs : Pierre Saulais, Revue : Technology and Innovation Numéro : Issue 2 Volume : 1 Date : 2016/10/14 DOI : 10.21494/ISTE.OP.2016.0111 ISSN : 2399-8571 Résumé : Present paper aims at complementing empirical contributions, already delivered to the special issue of Technology and Innovation review, with a more conceptual aspect of the topic of links between invention, innovation and intellectual property rights. After a light exploration of the three above-mentioned components, the author intends to show that these links actually represent bridges between fields which were little connected up to know and that the material, which these bridges are made of, is nothing else that knowledge.
