Global IP Strategy: Patent Litigation in the United States and Japan

U.S. companies typically foreign file their patent applications in Europe, China, and Japan. Despite many U.S. patents being filed in Japan, few U.S. companies file patent infringement suits there, often because they are unfamiliar with the inner workings of the Japanese patent litigation system.
Please join us over breakfast for a comparison of the U.S. and Japanese patent litigation systems.

Topics will include:

• How the Japanese patent litigation system differs from the U.S. system
• Emerging trends in the U.S. and Japanese patent litigation landscape
• Specific patent cases filed in both the United States and Japan
• Tips for effective patent enforcement in these jurisdictions
