What Every Life Science Company Executive Needs to Know About Patent Protection

In the life science industry, one patent is often the key protection for a billion dollar investment. Thus, the patenting decisions you make today can make or break your company. To be effective, patent strategies need to take into account—at the patent filing and prosecution stages—a global strategy including the differences between U.S. and European patent law.

Please join our group of Finnegan attorneys as they discuss a number of critical issues you must be aware of to ensure your patent portfolio is strong, valid, and enforceable, and to assist as you evaluate your competitors’ patents. Topics to be discussed include:

• Building and managing a robust patent portfolio
• Establishing freedom-to-operate and the risks of entering the U.S. market
• How investors and potential partners evaluate a patent portfolio

Admission is free, but space is limited so please register as soon as possible. ipseminars-europe@finnegan.com
