研討會內容

國際貿易委員會(ITC)再次成為專利訴訟的首選場域。然而,由於國際貿易委員會(ITC)訴訟特有的國內產業要求,非美國企業可能忽略國際貿易委員會(ITC)作為其爭取智慧財產權的可行場域。在本次研討會的前半部分,將由劉偉立律師講解人工智慧如何應用在證據揭示的最新科技, 以及 Richard Sterba 和 Min Park 將透過現實生活中的範例,解釋國際貿易委員會(ITC)訴訟的獨特面向、如何在被起訴時向國際貿易委員會(ITC)作出回應、以及台灣企業如何在國際貿易委員會(ITC)的訴訟中擔任控方 (原告)。
自2012年以來,約有10,000份第三方複審(IPR)和領證後複審(PGR)等申訴書被提交出去。其旨在質疑專利的有效性。在下半部分,Fish的合夥律師 Tim Riffe 和 Gwilym Attwell 將探討對申訴人和專利所有權人來說至關重要的策略。我們將詳細說明成功的策略 – 即起草最有可能被接納的申訴書,或準備最有可能導致主審機構駁申訴回聲請書的初步專利所有權人回應。最後,我們將在實務課程介紹如何起草專利申請,以大幅提高專利所有權人在PTAB取得成功的機會。
