Intellectual Property Law Year in Review – Boston | McDermott

Intellectual Property Law Year in Review – Boston

Overview


In 2017, the Supreme Court and Federal Circuit redefined and continued to define key aspects of Intellectual Property (IP) law in several areas, including:

  • Venue, jurisdiction and standing for patent cases
  • Scope of patent eligible subject matter
  • Constraints for claims of divided infringement

In addition, last year saw a reshaping of the various post-grant review processes implemented in the America Invents Act. We invite you to join us on February 13th to discuss the impact of these decisions on patent prosecution, portfolio management and litigation strategies.

CLE credit is pending in California, Illinois, New York and Texas. A Uniform Certificate of Attendance will be made available to participants requesting CLE credit in all other states.

McDermott Will & Emery’s IP Management Roundtables are designed for the educational benefit of a company president, CEO, general counsel or other executive with an interest in intellectual property. Please be advised McDermott has the right to restrict attendance and may limit participation in this event.
