摘　　要：NPE(Non-Practicing Entities)是一类拥有大量专利但不利用专利从事产品制造的专利运营组织,其存在饱受争议。无线未来将索尼上诉至南京中院标志着国外NPE首次将诉讼战火延烧至中国,引起各界广泛关注。客观公正地认识NPE,以恰当的策略应对外国NPE带来的专利风险,对中国ICT企业十分重要。在文献回顾的基础上,澄清有关NPE的认识并给出NPE的定义;利用事件系统理论对中国首例NPE对ICT企业专利诉讼案进行分析,构建基于事件系统理论的NPE在华专利风险评估模型;从应对NPE专利诉讼被动事件和发起专利保护主动事件两个角度,提出我国ICT企业防范和规避NPE专利风险的建议。NPE(Non-Practicing Entities)is a patent operation organization that has a large number of patents but does not use patents to manufacture products.Its existence is highly controversial.The Wireless Future appeal of Sony to the Nanjing Intermediate People's Court marks the first time that a foreign NPE has initiated a lawsuit in China,which has attracted wide public attention.It is very important for China's ICT companies to understand NPE objectively and fairly and to deal with the patent risks brought by foreign NPEs with appropriate strategies.Based on the literature review,this paper clarifies the misunderstanding of NPE and gives the definition of NPE,and then uses the event system theory to analyze the first NPE patent litigation against ICT enterprises in China.Then,a patent risk assessment model of NPE in China is constructed based on the event system theory.Finally,according to the patent risk assessment model,the strategies for Chinese ICT enterprises to prevent and evadepatent litigation risks brought by NPEs are given from two perspectives:how to deal with passive events of NPE patent litigation and how to initiate active events of patent protection.
