Karl Rosenbrock is the former Director-General of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute
(“ETSI”). He writes,

“I have followed with interest the various discussions and disputes regarding the
application of the ETSI IPR Policy. The ETSI IPR Policy was drafted, debated and finalized during
my tenure, and I was closely involved in its creation and approval and have followed further
discussions within ETSI. I was therefore asked by the Fair Standards Alliance to allow
publication of my views on the ETSI IPR Policy, its background and its application.”
