Biography

Martin Kretschmer (LLM LSE, PhD UCL) is Professor of Intellectual Property Law and Director of CREATe (www.create.ac.uk), the UK Copyright and Creative Economy Centre. CREATe is an interdisciplinary research hub established in 2012 jointly by three UK research councils (Arts & Humanities AHRC, Engineering & Physical Sciences EPSRC, and Social & Economic Sciences ESRC). From 2018-2023 CREATe is part of the AHRC Creative Industries Policy & Evidence Centre (led by innovation foundation Nesta). From 2020-2023, CREATe also leads the creative industries stream of a major EU H2020 research consortium: reCreating Europe – Copyright law, cultural diversity and the Digital Single Market.

From 2000-2012, Martin was Director of the Centre for Intellectual Property Policy & Management (CIPPM) at Bournemouth University (www.cippm.org.uk). From 1996-1999, he was an ESRC postdoctoral research fellow at Cass Business School, City University, London (ESRC Media Economics and Media Culture programme). During the 1990s, he was German Consultant Editor at BBC Worldwide, and wrote for German language national newspapers, public radio and TV.

Martin is general editor (with Prof. Lionel Bently, Cambridge University) of www.CopyrightHistory.org, the digital archive of primary sources on copyright from 1450 to 1900. He is also chair of the editorial boards of the portals www.CopyrightUser.org and www.CopyrightEvidence.org.  In 2015-2016, he served as president of the European Policy for Intellectual Property Association (EPIP). In 2018, Martin was Fernand Braudel Fellow at the European University Institute in Fiesole/Florence; in 2020, Weizenbaum Fellow at Humboldt University and Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin.

Research interests

Martin Kretschmer is best known for developing innovative empirical methods relating to issues in copyright and information law. He also has long standing interests in cultural economics, the theory of regulation and the history of ideas.

Within the work of the CREATe Centre, Martin has shaped an open knowledge environment, with a view to making research transparent and relevant to policy. This involves the creation of information portals, archives, resource pages, and regular policy contributions. He has led many independent reports, including for the UK Cabinet Office, the UK Intellectual Property Office, and the European Parliament. He contributes regularly to EU Policy.

Title: Evidence on Technological Protection Measures: the impact on research, education and preservation

Applicants: K. Erickson (PI), M. Kretschmer, A. Rosborough (Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University, Canada)

Dates: 2023-2024

Amount awarded: €70,000

Project summary

There is limited understanding and empirical evidence of the impacts of technological protection measures (TPMs) on activities permitted by exceptions to copyright in Europe. The proposed work will clarify the legal status of TPMs in European and key international jurisdictions. Report 1 will comprise a comparative doctrinal analysis of the implementation of TPM / anti-circumvention provisions in the copyright laws of the 27 EU member states and their interaction with applicable exceptions and limitations. A second report will provide the first large-scale empirical survey of institutional users (including researchers, librarians and cultural heritage practitioners) since the CDSM Directive came into force. This survey will explore current possibilities for circumvention of TPMs within national law. A third study on the economic effects of TPMs, using video games as a case study, will illuminate the scope of the problem and specific responses and practices by institutions in relation to TPMs, serving as a guide for policy action based on economic estimates of the total cultural value lost/inaccessible due to protected content.

Title: The Value of Public Domain Works

Reference: ES/K008137/1

Applicants: M. Kretschmer (PI), K. Erickson, F. Homberg, D. Mendis

Dates: September 2013-January 2015

Amount awarded: 42,900 ESRC (80% fEC) + £52,000 IPO (100% fEC)

Project summary

The creative process within media firms is often characterised as a binary choice between licensing existing intellectual property or creating new intellectual property owned by the business. However, a third possibility exists, which is that creators draw upon material in the public domain, such as stories and ideas that are not protected by copyright. In the 2011 Review of Intellectual Property for the UK government, Ian Hargreaves suggested that “unduly rigid application of copyright law” may “block innovation” and “hamper growth”. The greater availability of creative material may indeed provide greater opportunities for the UK media sector and particularly SMEs. While this claim is theoretically plausible, there have been few empirical studies of value creation from a public domain perspective. It is the aim of this project to create a foundation for assessing the economic and social value that use of materials at the margins of copyright law brings to the UK economy.

Kretschmer (Co-I), Mary Morgan (Co-I, LSE) Paul Nightingale (Co-I, SPRU Sussex), in collaboration with an international research team from leading business schools and social science departments located at Wharton, Grenoble, ETH Zurich

Dates: July 2013-June 2017

Amount awarded: £1m Consortium (fEC), of which £77K to University of Glasgow

Project summary

Sustainable advantage does not come from new technologies alone, but from better business models that are co-evolved and integrated with those technologies. We still do not properly understand which business models are best designed or adapted for any chosen technology, and what are the optimal timing and methods for integrating business model thinking into the technological trajectory, or whether (and how best) established business models might need to be fine-tuned – or even completely renewed – to align with new technologies as they emerge. The empirical work involves undertaking sector studies to examine the co-evolution of technology and business models across important economic sectors (such as software, digital entertainment, pharmaceuticals and satellites). We will document more than 50 cases of successful (and less successful) business model design and execution.

Title: The Relationship between Copyright and Contract Law

Amount awarded: £10,222

Outcome: Policy workshop (March 2010), publication of report (172pp, July 2010), reported on Out-law.com (16/07/10), The Register (19/07/10), IPKat (12 & 19/07/10)

Project summary

Under a tender procedure, CIPPM became a preferred supplier of research services to the UK Strategic Advisory Board for Intellectual Property Policy (SABIP) in Spring 2009. In August, SABIP commissioned a review on the relationship of copyright and contract law from a consortium.

Abstract: Contracts lie at the heart of the regulatory system governing the creation and dissemination of cultural products in two respects: (1) The exclusive rights provided by copyright law only turn into financial reward, and thus incentives to creators, through a contract with a third party to exploit protected material. (2) From a user perspective purchases of protected material may take the form of a licensing contract, governing behaviour after the initial transaction. Thus, a review of the relationship between copyright and contract law has to address both supply- and demand-side issues. On the supply side, policy concerns include whether copyright law delivers the often stated aim of securing the financial independence of creators. Particularly acute are the complaints by both creators and producers that they fail to benefit from the exponential increase in the availability of copyright materials on the Internet. On the demand side, the issue of copyright exceptions and their policy justification has become central to a number of reviews and consultations dealing with digital content. Are exceptions based on user needs or market failure? Do exceptions require financial compensation? Can exceptions be contracted out by licence agreements? This report (i) reviews economic theory of contracts, value chains and transaction costs, (ii) identifies a comprehensive range of regulatory options relating to creator and user contracts, using an international comparative approach, (iii) surveys the empirical evidence on the effects of regulatory intervention, and (iv) where no evidence is available, extrapolates predicted effects from theory.

Title: The Exploitation of Television Formats in Emerging Markets: Intellectual property and non-law based strategies

Reference: RES-186-27-0012

Commitment: project director (PI), 1 business fellow

Dates: October 2008-July 2009

Amount awarded: £32,000 (16K ESRC, 16K in kind FremantleMedia)

Outcome: (i) Digital resource http://televisionformats.bournemouth.ac.uk; (ii) dissemination seminar hosted by FremantleMedia, London on 16 June 2009 (oversubscribed with more than forty delegates  from TV production companies, government officials, city lawyers, and academics – various media reports); (iii) conference paper at ISHTIP Milan (26-27 June 2009)

Project summary

Television formats (such as Big Brother, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Pop Idol or Strictly Come Dancing) have become a major export industry for Britain and the United States (who together account for nearly two thirds of all format hours broadcast annually worldwide). Yet, there is no such thing as a television format right under copyright law. Any producer is free to develop game, reality and talent shows that are based on similar ideas. This has created a paradox for programme developers and programme buyers: Why pay for a programme format if you can re-create it for free?  This Business Placement project researched the use of legal (e.g. trade marks, know-how licences) and non-legal strategies (e.g. reputation networks, regional offices, branding) in the exploitation of television formats, in particular in relation to the major emerging markets (such as Eastern Europe, India and China). In close cooperation with the industry, the project has included (1) an interview based study at major international media fairs (MIPCOM and NATPE); (2) a case study of the exploitation of three successful television formats developed by FremantleMedia, one of the major UK independent television producers, and co-sponsor of the project.

Title: ‘Authors’ earnings from copyright and non-copyright sources: A comparative survey of 25,000 British and German writers’

Commitment: project director (PI), 2 research fellows (Dr M. Guirguis, Dr F. Kawohl)

Dates: November 2005-July 2007

Amount awarded: £58,000

Outcome: press conference March 2007, final report – reported in Guardian (10/03/07), Independent on Sunday (11/03/07), Outlaw.com (16/07/07), The Register (17/07/07)

Project summary

There are few studies on authors’ earnings. In particular, there are no systematic studies assessing the effects of the legal framework of copyright and contract law on authors’ income and professional decisions. The available data seem to indicate that (i) only a small percentage of authors reach ordinary living standards from copyright income; that (ii) earnings from non-copyright activities are an important source of income for many authors. It was the aim of the project

- to provide a transparent and reliable survey of authors’ earnings from copyright and non-copyright sources in Germany and the UK

- to provide a systematic comparison of the legal and institutional differences affecting authors’ earnings in Germany and the UK.

(a) Survey

  • Conduct a limited number of in depth interviews to generate working profiles of authors according to professional groups
  • Devise and pilot questionnaire
  • Perform survey by mailshot inserted into ALCS/VG Wort communication
  • Compute and analyse returns statistically
  • Triangulate results with ALCS/VG Wort distribution data

(b) Legal and institutional framework

  • Drawing on existing comparative studies and a collection of template publishing contracts, construct a taxonomy of the legal and institutional framework in Germany and UK. The aim is to capture the prevalent characteristics of copyright contracts and remuneration from secondary use for groups of authors (such as literary authors, journalist and academics, and also sub-groups such as novelists, playwrights, screen writers and translators)
  • Formulate hypotheses of links between the legal and institutional framework and authors’ earnings
