Key Current IP Issues | 29th Annual Intellectual Property Law & Policy Conference

Second plenary session at Emily C. and John E. Hansen IP Institute at Fordham Law School annual conference: Lord Justice Arnold’s proposition for global arbitration to resolve #FRAND #patent #jurisdiction disputes; Renata Hesse shares challenges of getting #SDO onboard; Jing He talks about technological decoupling and focus shift by Chinese businesses and, by implication Chinese law firms, toward #EU and away from #US as fallout of trade war, entities list, and other measures. All in all, a seismic shift is on the cards for the global patent order that mirrors the turbulent times we live in.
 
A lighthearted moment when Judge Denny Chin referenced #jeremylin when underscoring the importance of promoting diversity on the bench and bar to make the more serious point that a judiciary that better represents the population it serves is more likely to do justice.
