The Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO) will offer a one-hour webinar entitled "Evidence of Prior Art at the PTAB: Rigorous Proof, Or Else" on January 19, 2017 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm (ET). David Conrad of Fish & Richardson PC, Brian Mudge of Andrews Kurth Kenyon LLP, and Michael Rosato of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati will discuss the Blue Calypso v. Groupon and GoPro v. Contour IP cases, which expand the edges of existing case law on the use of Internet-based and printed prior art regarding public accessibility to those skilled in the art, and the recent post-grant review (PGR) Altaire Pharmaceuticals v. Paragon Bioteck, where for the first time the PTAB upheld a patent in a PGR, with the patent surviving because the petitioner failed to prove that the claims were invalid due to public use or on-sale activity.
The registration fee for the webinar is $135 (government and academic rates are available upon request). Those interested in registering for the webinar can do so here.
