Abstract
► I study collusion between competitors that share technological innovations. ► I compare between research joint ventures to ex post licensing arrangements. ► Prices higher under licensing if innovations are small and collusion is more likely. ► Prices may be higher under the joint venture if innovations are large. ► Antitrust policy thus should pay more attention to the collusive role of licensing.
