Things Are Different Over There: Strategies for Drafting Software and Electronics Patent Applications to Aid Prosecution and Enforcement on Both Sides of the Pond
June 3, 2020
Webinar
Hot on the heels of the huge interest (thank you!) received by our recent webinar discussing general strategies for patent drafting in Europe and the U.S., we are offering a further webinar to discuss software and electronics specific strategies for patent drafting. This webinar will focus on practical examples and approaches and how such approaches to drafting might impact prosecution and enforcement in Europe and the U.S.
Topics to be discussed include:
- Drafting to avoid subject matter eligibility exclusions-the technical effect requirement in Europe vs. the 101 requirement in the U.S.
- Strategies for drafting standard essential patent applications.
- Drafting to mitigate for EPO's inventive step objections and USPTO's obviousness rejections.
