KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: USPTO PTAB UPDATE
Gain an update from the Patent Trial and Appeal Board in regard to its efforts surrounding Inter Partes Reviews and the Covered Business Method Patent program.
The protection of patents and IP is critical to the financial services industry due to the increasingly competitive marketplace and the growth of patent trolls. You must ensure protection of your own innovation to remain competitive and take great care to avoid infringing on the patents of others. World Congress's 11th Annual Patents for Financial Services Summit, which is being held on July 23-24, 2014 in NYC is intended for in-house legal executives to engage in networking opportunities, shared best practices, hear cutting-edge case studies, and discuss new rules and regulations impacting financial services patent policies. This two-day Summit will consist of informative educational sessions and interactive panel discussions led by senior-level patent counsel and experts on patent trends and strategies.
Join our Patents for the Financial Services Summit and benefit from in-depth discussions on ways to grow patent strategies, practical case-studies and interactive panel discussions, featuring experienced and highly knowledgeable IP counsel, regulators, law firms and technology experts.
