Patents are a key asset of any emerging company. However,
they have a defined and limited term. For a company dealing with a product that
will require clinical tests and FDA approval to sell, the delay involved in the
regulatory review process can eat up valuable patent term. Come learn about
patent term extension, whether and how you can get one, and how long they last.
With a recent court decision, the Patent office is poised to change its rules
in a number of significant ways. These changes potentially limit the scope of
protection that can be obtained, and impose specific requirements on patent
applicants. Learn about these changes, and the potential impact on your
company's patent strategy. |
