It is more important than ever that research and IP budgets are spent wisely, but do you know if the claims of your patents will enable your commercial objectives? The strongest global IP protection takes into account the business and location of your competitors and the patent claims that provide the most value in each jurisdiction. In this webinar, we will look at optimizing enforceable claim scope while minimizing costs for your portfolio. Focusing on the largest patent jurisdictions including the US, EPO, China, Japan and Korea, we will provide practical examples and approaches and will explain how such approaches to prosecution impact enforceable claim scope.
Topics to be discussed include:
- Understanding how the protection
afforded by claim types
differs in different jurisdictions. - How many claims (category, scope, independent) do I really need?
- Where can we amend during enforcement proceedings and how does that affect strategies for dependent claims.
- Do you know how much you are paying for your claims over the life of the patent (filing, grant, and post-grant)?
