You have a patent, you suspect infringement. Now what? As part of USPTO’s continued outreach efforts to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the USPTO will host a multi-panel webinar covering patent enforcement fundamentals for SMEs thinking about enforcing their patents. The webinar will feature three panels of experts, each addressing different aspects of patent enforcement in the U.S. system. The panelists will include judges, in-house counsel, government experts, and litigation counsel, and will address litigation before United States District Courts and the United States International Trade Commission, and administrative proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board.
