Making Innovation Pay Luncheon

Are you certain about your patent protection? Do you worry about missing out on future revenue? Are you capitalizing from the protection strategy you have today, or are you concerned that you will end up in litigation for infringement? Do the uses and abuses of the patent system put you at risk in maintaining freedom to operate in your business?

Foley hosted a luncheon program, “Making Innovation Pay” on May 3, 2007. During this program, we provided concrete tips on developing new methods and intellectual property (IP) strategies to secure your IP in the global marketplace, and ways to benefit from the patent strategy you already have enforced. Topics discussed included:

• Managing IP Within the Corporate Enterprise
• Model Behavior for Patent Owners and the Ethical Issues Involved

Presenters:

• Foley Of Counsel Stephen P. Fox, former Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for IP for Hewlett Packard
• Foley Partner Joseph N. Ziebert, Vice Chair of the Electronics Practice
