Abstract

Stakeholders in the processes of innovation and standardization are interrelated due to the strong interrelation and perpetual interaction of both. Four main stakeholders are playing important roles in the innovation process: inventors, entrepreneurs, marketers, and users. The fifth stakeholder is a Standards Developing Organization, SDO. By taking part in the innovation process, the SDO avoids efforts in relation to a crucial standardization deliverable, given directly by an Intellectual Property Right owner. This also serves to avoid so-called island solutions. The stakeholders in the standardization process are discussed using an example of a supranational SDO: the European Union.
