Maximising and Protecting your Patent Portfolio to Increase Revenue and Balance Costs
IQPC’s Nordic IPR Forum is now in its 9th year running. It is a globally recognised Nordic Intellectual Property event for senior IP professionals looking to manage patent portfolio and benchmark against best practice.
This year, Nordic IPR Forum have put together an agenda we think is absolutely brilliant – whether you are looking for regulatory updates from the Swedish Ministry of Justice through State Secretary Magnus Graner and the European Patent Office through Dr. Stefan Luginbuehl.
That is why we bring IP experts to the speaker stand. Our innovative agenda will address key issues in Intellectual Property Rights, attend to:
- Get an update on European and Global patent reform from State Secretary Magnus Graner, Swedish Ministry of Justice and Dr. Stefan Luginbuehl from the European Patent Office.
- Learn how to deal with patent law in China and other emerging markets in order to protect your patents. You have to be out there, but the legal system is so different, and local contacts are invaluable. How can you plan for Asia, or South America, and how do you avoid the most common pitfalls?
- Deepen your knowledge through bespoke, topic specific streams on IP portfolio management, licensing and standards, trademark strategies and enforcement and legal
- Optimise your patent portfolio and put cost-saving IP strategies in place. Getting the value of your patents right while cutting unnecessary costs is increasingly important in today’s competitive landscape.
- Bespoke conference streams for all of our dedicated experts, whatever your IP field is. We will be looking into intellectual property trademarks, top-level domains, portfolio management and case law.
The 9th Annual Nordic IPR Forum has been developed with Nordic intellectual property experts to address the hottest topics and issues in IP today. It will deliver case studies, solutions and transferable strategies to help you with your IP in 2012 and beyond.
