How does my participation in the Global Standards Management Process (GSMP) relate to this IP Policy?
Companies declare their intent to make intellectual property that is necessary for the development of a Standard/Specification, available by taking a positive action to “opt-in” to specific Working Groups under the GS1 GSMP. Each Working Group publishes a Call to Action (CTA) that that forms the scope of the activity of which a participant is agreeing to “Opt In” to. In order for a company to send its representatives to join a Working Group, that company must specifically opt into that Working Group. This allows us to know which company is working on what Standard/Specification and, hence, whose intellectual property might become necessary in the development of that particular Standard/Specification. All Participants in a Working Group where Mobile Commerce requirements are being discussed must sign the GS1 MobileCom IP Policy.
