On March 16, 2018, Assistant Attorney General
for the Antitrust Division Makan Delrahim gave a speech at the University of
Pennsylvania Law School titled “The ‘New
Madison’ Approach to Antitrust and Intellectual Property Law.” The
speech provided insight concerning his views on the role of antitrust law in
the field of intellectual property, and the Antitrust Division’s priorities
under his leadership. AAG Delrahim explained four basic premises that govern
how he believes antitrust enforcement should impact intellectual property law;
in short, his view is that patent rights are a boon to consumers and
competition and antitrust law should not stand in the way of patent-holders
exercising their rights.
