Description:
European Patent enforcement and litigation can be
confusing to most US companies in part because European patents must be enforced
separately in each European state, while patents can be obtained via the
European Patent Office (EPO) or as national-only patents in each EP state.
Germany is the most popular venue to enforce patent rights due to its bifurcated
patent system where patent infringement and validity are adjudicated via
separate legal tracks. The United Kingdom is another common patent enforcement
venue.
Our expert speaker will discuss typical European
enforcement strategies and venues, including post grant strategies via the EPO,
and consider possible impacts of Brexit on future European patent enforcement
and litigation.
