Event Synopsis:
Acquiring and enforcing patent protection has become a core part of Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology industries where innovations are constantly counterfeited and replicated by competitors in the market. It is, therefore, important to understand key patent issues particularly, the fundamentals and essentials of patent portfolio creation, management and protection. Without these, patents would always be exposed to infringement or invalidation and portfolio would remain under-commercialized.
Listen as a panel of distinguished industry experts and thought leaders organized by The Knowledge Group provide the audience with in-depth discussion of the important patent issues in pharma and biotechnology industries for 2018. The speakers will provide best practices in protecting patents against infringement and overcoming patent invalidation.

• Recent Life Sciences Federal Circuit Decisions
• Key Legislative and Litigation Developments

• Strategic Approaches to Patent Eligibility
• Best Practices
