It is unlikely that a non-practicing patent owner will receive exclusionary remedies in the United States since the Supreme Court 2006 eBay decision. Patent enforcement in Europe, particularly the United Kingdom and Germany, appears expeditious, economical, and predictable, offering a greater likelihood of injunctive relief. In a dramatic change, strategic innovators around the world now consider Europe a more favorable venue for patent enforcement compared to the United States. Will US start-ups patent overseas before patenting in the US? How will the US patent system affect the expansion plans for European and Asian companies, especially lowest cost producers?
This panel will discuss the dynamics for global patent owners protecting and monetizing portfolios here and abroad.
Moderators:
