Philip Brooks' Patent Infringement Updates:
Information Forum on Pending U.S Patent Law Overhaul

The above-titled Forum is sponsored by the National Small Business Association and the Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia and Baltimore Sections of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The Forum will focus on the impact on patenting practice, patent protection, and on science and engineering jobs.

The following is excerpted from the Angel Venture Forum's email invitation to this event:

As major changes in U.S. patent law are adopted, a radical shift in the landscape for the process of seeking and obtaining patent protection for innovations is taking place.

Recent mega-acquisitions of patent portfolios with unprecedented valuations by large multinational corporations underscore a trend wherein a growing share of U.S. patents are owned by a few large multinational corporations.
