Keeping Secrets Secret

Finnegan-Hosted Event; Speaking Engagement

August 27, 2008

Menlo Park, CA

Many business and technological factors must be considered when making the pivotal decision of whether to patent a key innovation or keep it as a trade secret. If circumstances lead to the trade secret path, how do you ensure that the intellectual property stays in the company's confines? And if the trade secret is compromised, what next?

Please join panelists Robert McCauley, Griffith Price, Jr., and Erik Puknys, with moderator Scott Herbst, as they discuss key IP aspects of trade secret law:

  • Patents vs. trade secrets
  • Using non-disclosure agreements offensively and defensively
  • Litigating trade secret cases in California

Finnegan confirms that this activity has been certified for 1.5 hours of MCLE.
