2009 Mid-Winter Institute
Corporations are feeling the IP squeeze. Intellectual Property seems to be harder to obtain and even harder to keep. Patent laws and their interpretation are changing dramatically. And the escalating cost of acquiring IP is stretching budgets thin. As corporations extend their international reach they are looking for new global acquisition and enforcement strategies. How can corporate attorneys and their counsel manage in this changing environment? Their legal, business and cultural knowledge needs to extend outside the confines of the US while still maintaining their US focus and expertise. This Mid-Winter Institute will address various topics around effectively acquiring, protecting and enforcing intellectual property world-wide with an eye toward optimizing results in a global environment.
