What is the value of protecting intellectual property (IP)? That’s the fundamental question that most Chief IP Counsel need time to answer to help their companies succeed. However, they’re often bogged down by the daily demands of leading teams that are doing what’s necessary to make sure that they’re obtaining the necessary IP protection. When they do have a chance to pose and answer that question to business executives, they quickly realize that those business executives are concerned with more pressing issues. When they succeed and those business executives start getting excited about the potential value of protecting IP, in-house counsel has the added responsibility of making sure they can follow-through. In this episode of Clause 8, Eli sits down with the founder & CEO of Tradespace, Alec Sorensen, to discuss potential strategies for in-house counsel facing these challenges. Alec talks about how he first discovered these challenges of in-house IP counsel while being asked to wade through messy IP portfolios of acquired companies as a management consultant. He explains how he was able to facilitate over $250 million in commercialization deals in that role and how that led him to found Tradespace to help in-house counsel set up their companies for similar success. Eli and Alec explore the complexities of IP development and the potential to unlock hidden value in patent portfolios, how and when to communicate with the C-suite about IP, how IP teams can get other parts of the company become champions for its role, the role that commercialization plays for Tradespace tools, and much more! Selected Topics * How lean, efficient IP teams are able to contribute to business success * IP team demands leading to lack of business relationships * Handling analysis paralysis in IP with analytics * Strategic IP questions for a new CEO * Successful IP strategies for universities * Role of AI in empowering IP decision-making * Risk of AI diminishing human judgement * Advice for tech entrepreneurs in the IP space * Customers using Tradespace to create better processes Disclaimer This is a public episode.

When Judge Pauline Newman helped create the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in 1982 to have exclusive jurisdiction over patent cases, no one could’ve guessed the drama that would follow almost 40 years after she joined the court herself. In April, Gene Quinn broke the news on IPWatchdog about a complaint filed by the Chief Judge of the Federal Circuit against Newman for being unable to effectively discharge the duties of her office. Days later, Newman showed up and spoke at Fordham Law School’s annual IP conference in New Y ork in a way that completely undermined the foundation of that complaint. Recently retired Federal Circuit Judge Kathleen O’Malley sat right next to Newman and looked towards her with admiration and affection. Even if Hollywood’s writers weren’t on strike, they couldn’t have scripted it better. However, recent media interviews with Newman revealed that those events were only the tip of the iceberg of this drama. Newman only discovered something was afoot when the Chief Judge - along with two other Federal judges of a Special Committee formed to investigate Newman – confronted Newman with demands that she resign or take senior status. “Just go quietly or we’ll make your life miserable,” Newman was told. A short time later, 88-year old Federal Circuit Judge Alan Lourie showed up at Newman’s Watergate (yes, that Watergate) apartment to also try to convince her to resign. By that point, he told her, the Chief Judge already managed to convince the rest of their colleagues that Newman was “totally disabled physically, and mentally incompetent.” When Lourie said he “had no reason to disbelieve” that, Newman signaled for Lourie - her Watergate complex neighbor and colleague for over 30 years on the court– to leave. The news of the complaint and Newman’s appearance at Fordham crushed the plan for Newman to “just go quietly.” Since that time, former Federal Circuit Chief Judge Michel and Rader have publicly sided with Newman. Michel highlighted “the conflicted process” where “the Chief Judge and the Special Committee [ ] continuing to act as accuser, investigator, prosecutor, and judge” by requesting a request to transfer the investigation to another federal court of appeals. Yet, noticeably, all of judges on the Federal Circuit and most of her former clerks have remained silent and are avoiding getting publicly involved. The one notable exception: Newman’s former clerk Greg Dolin. In his role as Senior Litigation Counsel at New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), he is leading the legal fight against ousting Newman from the Federal Circuit. After Dolin filed a lawsuit in district court claiming that the Federal Circuit’s efforts are unconstitutional and convinced Newman to take a cognitive test, both sides agreed to U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper’s call for mediation. On this episode, Eli talks to Greg shortly before that mediation is to take place in August with retired D.C. Circuit Judge Thomas Griffith. They talk about how and why this drama got to this point, how Newman has been able to emotionally deal with the fallout, why this fight is important beyond the Federal Circuit, what a potential resolution might look like, whether Greg and Judge Newman are preparing for impeachment proceedings, and much more!

Will Twitter's meager patent portfolio doom Elon Musk’s hopes of “strictly enforcing” Twitter’s IP rights? Eli is joined by return guest Gaston Kroub on this special episode to discuss how an unprecedented IP dispute between two of the world’s richest men might play out. In response to Meta successfully launching Threads, Musk’s go to lawyer Alex Spiro sent a letter to Mark Zuckerberg expressing "serious concerns that Meta...has engaged in systematic, willful, and unlawful misappropriation of Twitter's trade secrets and other intellectual property" and intention to "strictly enforce its intellectual property rights." Although the letter focuses on trade secrets, Spiro’s colleagues are likely busy mining Twitter's patent portfolio. Unfortunately for them, Twitter’s patent program last made news in 2012 when it launched the Innovator’s Patent Agreement. The IPA was meant to show Twitter’s commitment to “employees that their patents would “only be used for defensive purposes” (if you didn’t read the fine print). Unsurprisingly, this attitude led to Twitter barely obtaining any patents. However, it has managed to keep some foundational families of patents - that make Twitter founder Jack Dorsey as an inventor - alive. Will any of this matter? What will it take for Twitter to file a credible claim suit? If Twitter does file suit, what will happen next? What will it take for these billionaires - who previously challenged each other to a jiu-jitsu-match - to settle? Is this IP dispute just a scheme by Musk to make Twitter someone else’s problem?

USPTO Director Kathi Vidal’s decision to issue the Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) is the latest major controversy surrounding the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). The American Invents Act (AIA) created the PTAB to supposedly provide a cheaper, faster alternative to district court patent litigation. However, the PTAB quickly gained a reputation for being a patent “death squad” that allows defendants to repeatedly challenge the same patents until those patents are invalidated. During the last administration, former USPTO Director Andrei Iancu tried to correct that by limiting when patents could be challenged at the PTAB. Because those changes never finished going through the federal government’s rulemaking process, Vidal was able to quickly roll them back. The ANPRM now presents a litany of its own proposals for fixing fix how the PTAB operates and heated opposition on all sides. Nicholas Matich joins Eli to talk about the ANPRM and what’s likely to happen with its proposals. Nick, who is now Principal at the patent litigation powerhouse McKool Smith, served as USPTO’s general counsel under Iancu after working at the White House and as Deputy GC of the OMB. This provides him with an unmatched understanding of how the rulemaking process actually works for proposals emanating from the USPTO. Nick and Eli also discuss: What Nick learned from working with Viet Dinh and/or Paul Clement at Bancroft PLLC How the OMB reviews & approves agency rules Serving as USPTO’s GC Advice for influencing USPTO’s rules Iancu’s Fintiv factors & how to explain swift reversal Why the ANPRM was a mistake Advice for future USPTO Directors This is a public episode.

Joff Wild on Founding IAM for Chief IP Officers & EU Commission’s anti-SEP Crusade “It became obvious to me that IP was a lot more than laws and court decisions and regulations. IP was becoming a fundamental business asset, one that people could use to generate profits, build partnerships, go out into the markets, and raise cash. But no one was writing about that there was no coverage of that. So that said to me, there was an opportunity to create something new.” IAM’s founding editor Joff Wild joins Eli from ‘across the pond’ to talk about starting a media company to cover the business of intellectual property (IP), the barrage of recent news about the European Commission’s misguided standard essential patents (SEPs) proposals, and much more: Joff’s journey from tabloids to IP Editing Managing Intellectual Property (MIP) How legacy IP media failed to appreciate/cover IP as a fundamental business asset Founding IAM in 2003 Willing Chief IP Officers into existence with Rob Sterne (of Sterne Kessler) and Ron Laurie “If you create, they will come” – creating the idea of Chief of IP Officers What Chief IP Officers care about: danger & opportunity Strength & weakness of Chief IP Officers Why forward-thinking companies were willing to tell IAM their IP secrets Importance of sharing information for growing IP ecosystem How partnering with Ocean Tomo to host Europe’s first patent auction led to IAM’s event business Concerns about conflicts with IAM’s event business How patents are a clear force for good Why so many new patent-related ventures, business models have failed Difficulty of leveraging IP value Lessons from Nokia & Ericsson about importance of investing in patents over a long period of time EU Commission’s power & failure to take patent policy seriously How EU Commission’s evidence-free SEP proposals risk destroying EU’s global leadership on SEP/FRAND issues Extensive lobbying that led to the SEP proposals Will the EU Commission’s SEP proposals become law? Unified Patent Court’s potential to become the de facto global patent court Opportunity for Brexit UK to become a pro-patent jurisdiction Is it time for IAM to close down its China office in Hong Kong? Japan’s slow patent revolution India’s huge potential Why Brazil & Colombia have become hotbeds for protecting patent rights & why Sub-Saharan Africa might be next Advice for Chief IP Officers This is a public episode.

David Jones is the Executive Director of the High Tech Inventors Alliance (HTIA), which advocates on patent policy issues on behalf of some of the largest tech companies in the world. When Dave became the head of HTIA in 2019, it seemed that DC was finally turning against the “patent troll” narrative driving patent policy in Congress and the executive branch. However, that did not last long: efforts to pass Section 101 reform failed to gain traction in Congress; the current administration rolled back efforts to restrain the role of the PTAB under the previous administration; and an unprecedented lobbying effort spurred the Chief Judge of the Western District of Texas to randomly reassign new patent cases filed in Judge Alan Albright’s division. All outcomes that members of the HTIA supported. This episode features a wide-ranging and super fun conversation about if (and how) Dave has been so effective as head of HTOA over the last few years and/or if he’s just that lucky. Prior to taking the helm at HTIA, Dave was assistant general counsel for IP policy at Microsoft and worked for Senator Orrin Hatch on IP issues for many years. Dave is able to draw on those experiences to provide priceless – and often surprising - insights about how patent policies are shaped. This is a public episode.

Former Patent Commissioner Robert Stoll joins the Clause 8 podcast to talk about working his way up from being an examiner to being the commissioner over his 30+ year-long career at the USPTO. As commissioner, Bob helped former USTPO Director David Kappos implement the American Invents Act (AIA) and transform how the USPTO’s patent examiners operate. Before that, he served as USPTO’s head of the Office of Legislation and International Affairs under Director John Dudas. Now out of government, he freely shares what he thought about what happened at the USPTO during his time there as an executive, why he stayed, and what he thinks about the current state of America’s patent system. He also talks about what it’s like to be part of the “first family” of IP law, which includes Federal Circuit Judge Kara Stoll. In this episode, Eli and Bob also discuss: How so many of Bob’s family members ended up serving in senior IP roles in every branch of US government and internationally Bob’s secrets for longevity & success at the USPTO How he became Commissioner Relationship with David Kappos Whether the USPTO Director is really in charge of an administration’s patent policy Creation of the Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB) and post-grant proceedings Role of “patent troll” narrative Whether there is a “patent quality” problem Director Vidal’s exercise of her Director review power Proposals to record examiner interviews Importance of IP bar organizations in shaping policies This is a public episode.

If you’ve come across a national news story about some brash character making lots of money from patent deals, chances are that the person making those deals happen behind the scenes was an unassuming lawyer in Israel. Her name is Lillian Shaked. On this episode, Lillian tells the story of how she went from being a commercial attorney in Israel to working with who’s who of patent monetization legends around the world and likely working on more major patent deals than any other attorney in the world. Lillian also talks about her relatively recent transition from being the lawyer to acquiring and monetizing the patents herself. This is likely only the beginning of that story…. In this episode, Eli & Lillian discuss: How moving from Canada to Israel set her apart as Israel’s high tech sector boomed How Lillian made a patent transaction career from one patent deal Working with Erich Spangenberg Advantage of working from Israel on American patent deals Importance of ongoing, positive relationships between parties involved in patent transactions Monetization strategies based on reasonableness of infringers/potential licensees Impact of course correction in patent market after the boom years in the early 2000s Rise of litigation funding Why patent litigation funding companies moved from taking passive role to taking active role How and why patent litigators prevent win-win outcomes Terms to avoid in patent deals Why and how deals fall apart Importance of momentum for patent transactions Why the BlackBerry patent deal fell apart Transitioning from handling the transactions as a lawyer to acquiring patents from beginning Advice for building valuable patent portfolios Efforts to shame patent assertion entities This is a public episode.

Five-time world jump rope champion Molly Metz and her husband Dirk Tomsin talk about the highs and lows of innovation, entrepreneurship, and relying on America’s patent system. A serious car accident spurred Molly to invent a new type of jump rope that revolutionized jump roping and the use of jump roping for CrossFit. Thanks to patents that were awarded to her by the US Patent Office (USPTO) for the invention, Molly’s company – JumpNrope – started making the jump ropes completely in America and licensing the patents to various fitness companies that eagerly relied on her jump roping technology. It should’ve been the perfect story that the USPTO could tout about how America’s economy benefited from a woman inventor taking advantage of the patent system. Instead, Rogue Fitness - the largest fitness distributor for CrossFit –challenged Molly’s patents at the USPTO’s Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). Molly and Dirk are now dealing with the aftermath of that and fighting for a better future for other inventors. On this episode, Molly, Dirk, and Eli discuss: Molly’s start in the world of jump roping in Boulder, Colorado How a car accident spurred her to invent Decision to file patent applications Examination process at the USPTO & rewarding feeling of obtaining a patent Decision to manufacture the jump ropes in Colorado and not China Experience of successfully licensing the patented jump rope technology to other companies When the patent system worked for Molly Rogue Fitness’ initial interest in selling Molly’s jump rope, licensing negotiations, and decision to infringe Negative impact of Rogue Fitness’ refusal to license the technology Working with patent litigation attorneys to enforce patents Rogue Fitness challenging the patents at the PTAB based on two patents from 1978 and 1979 Molly and Dirk’s experience with the subsequent PTAB proceedings and Federal Circuit appeal Prof. Dennis Crouch’s analysis of the PTAB decision Supreme Court petition to secure pre-cancellation damages USPTO’s effort to increase number of women patentees Advice for other women and small business inventors This is a public episode.

Federal Circuit Judge Timothy Dyk discusses his memoir and provides priceless insights into how the Federal Circuit is operating today - 42 years after it was created in 1982 and 24 years after Dyk was confirmed to serve on it in 2000. This episode explores Dyk's perspectives on judges serving together at the Federal Circuit. His reflections and anecdotes offer a unique glimpse into the workings of the Federal Circuit, the decision-making process of a seasoned appellate judge, and various debates surrounding the Federal Circuit and judges retiring. Dyk was nominated to the Federal Circuit in 1998 by President Bill Clinton after clerking for Earl Warren at the Supreme Court and a distinguished career as an appellate attorney at the law firms of Wilmer Cutler and Jones Day. Selected Topics: * First introduction to patent law: office linoleum floors & yacht named Pat Pending * Role of chief judges setting court dynamics * Collegiality, dissents, and importance of individual personalities & relationships among judges * Judge Dyk's process for considering cases before oral arguments * Dyk’s defense of Rule 36 decisions and insights into other Federal Circuit practices * Panel dependency & skepticism of empirical scholarship related to judicial decisions * Former clerks arguing cases before judges they clerked for * Providing additional jurisdiction to Federal Circuit * Cameras in federal courtrooms & privacy in intra-court deliberations * Judicial retirement decisions and importance of humility * Advice for effective oral and written advocacy before the Federal Circuit, including for amicus briefs Notable, Quotable: Biggest challenge "I think the biggest challenge for any Federal Circuit Judge in patent cases in particular is is dealing with the technology . . . getting the help that you need to understand the technology. It’s really hard. And we need help from the bar, we need help from our clerks, and we need to be willing to spend a lot of time to wade through it." Role of collegiality "Collegiality makes for better decision making, first of all. And second of all, it makes it a nicer place to be. You get along with your colleagues. The job is a lot better." Qualities of best written briefs "A brief that is candid about what's going on, that recognizes that there's another side to it, that's nothing shrill, that's statesman like, that's objective. Those are the qualities that we value most." On Judge Pauline Newman “I always enjoyed sitting with Judge Newman. I enjoyed having Judge Newman as a colleague and occasionally we did panels together. I remember we went to NYU and presented ourselves as being close colleagues even though we disagreed a lot of the time. Judge Newman was a terrific colleague, and I enjoyed being her friend.” Disclaimer This is a public episode.

Clause 8 Podcast Show Notes Rob Rodrigues and Tatiana Alves - Brazil’s go-to attorneys for strong patent protection and effective enforcement - join Eli to talk about founding RNA Law and offer insider perspectives on successfully navigating the Brazilian patent system. Rob discusses how Brazil’s large market size and the predictability of obtaining injunctions is attracting foreign businesses looking for robust patent protection. He also talks about how Brazil is becoming an even more favorable venue for patent litigation because, with more cases being filed, the knowledge level of judges and the predictability of court rulings are also improving. The discussion also provides a comprehensive overview of: * the examination process at the Brazilian patent office, * the possibility of leveraging European and US patent grants for faster approval, * opposition proceedings, * the nuances of securing injunctions, and * pursuing patent protection in Brazil as part of a broader global IP strategy. ** Bonus segment at the end : Eli ruminates on the founding of RNA Law coinciding with the rising significance of patents in Brazil. He then discusses the related trend of sophisticated chief patent counsel focusing on obtaining valuable patents that actually meet their companies’ strategic goals in the US. Selected Takeaways: * Integrated legal-technical strategies significantly enhance the success rate in patent litigation within Brazil. * The Brazilian patent office is becoming more efficient, though the examination process can still be lengthy, particularly in the telecom sector. * Pharma patent applications face more scrutiny in Brazil but that can be navigated effectively with the right strategy. * Obtaining injunctions - including ex-parte injunctions - in Brazil is feasible and can be a powerful tool in patent enforcement, though it is highly dependent on the specifics of each case. Notable, Quotable "Judges in Brazil are very much concerned about getting it right. They understand the importance of patents for innovation." – Rob Rodriguez "The biggest expense for a company in obtaining a patent is actually asking for their inventors’ time." – Eli Resources: * RNA Law Website * Voice of IP on launch of RNA Law To explore these insights and leverage them for your IP strategy, don’t miss the full episode.

His critics have called him “one of the most notorious patent trolls in America.” Many others have tried and failed to emulate his success. However, it’s hard to deny that Erich Spangenberg is in many ways a singular visionary in the world of patents. If there are celebrities in the patent world, it’s Erich Spangenberg. Thanks for reading Voice of IP! Subscribe for free to receive updates. As the founder of IPNav, he completed over 1000 licensing transactions - worth billions of dollars. To the surprise of many, he then joined forces with hedge fund manager Kyle Bass to challenge pharma patents under the AIA. More recently, he founded IPwe - a blockchain-based platform for patent transactions. On this episode, Erich shares the story of how being sued for patent infringement by Ronald Katz led him to embrace the patent monetization field. He also shares his strategies for successful patent assertion, his candid perspective on being labeled a “patent troll,” why big corporations wanted him to work for them, what he thinks the role of generative AI will be for IP, his plans for IPwe after its bankruptcy, and much more! Key Takeaways: * Innovative Approach to Patent Assertion : Erich Spangenberg's strategies involve early information sharing and comprehensive presentations to inform and engage potential infringers. * Learning from the Best : Insights gained from industry veterans like Ron Katz and applying asset management principles, rather than merely advocating, have been keys to Erich’s success in patent monetization. * Impact of America Invents Act (AIA) : Addressing the ramifications of AIA, Erich explains how his collaboration with Kyle Bass aimed to showcase its flaws and its current role in pharma patent challenges. * Future of Patent Transactions : Despite challenges, Erich remains optimistic about utilizing blockchain and AI for creating an efficient marketplace for patents. Notable Quotable: "Not every patent asset is a great one. As a matter of fact, the vast majority of them aren't." Thank you for reading Voice of IP. Share with others! This is a public episode.

Why does an $850 billion pharma company obtain only 50 patents per year? Steve Caltrider, Chief IP Counsel at Dana Farber Cancer Institute, brings over 35 years of experience building valuable pharma patent portfolios and championing patent policies that promote innovation. Before Dana Farber, Steve rose to the role of General Patent Counsel at Eli Lilly. Steve has also served on the USPTO's Public Patent Advisory Committee and is currently the Chair of the ABA Section of IP Law. In this episode, Steve shares the story of why and how he relied on data to reduce Eli Lilly’s patent portfolio, and explains why obtaining less patents is likely the better strategy for many large companies. He also discusses the critical role of IP in getting medical innovations to patients, the potentially catastrophic impact of the administration’s march-in proposal, and his take on various developing patent policy issues. Selected Topics * IP’s indispensable role in commercialization * Section 101 mess hindering development of diagnostics & potentially reducing drug costs * Data-driven patent strategies in the pharmaceutical industry * Impact of excessive USPTO fees on start-ups and smaller companies * How IP strategy differs at academic research institutions versus major pharmaceutical companies * Successfully navigating a career in patent law as in-house counsel * Role of outside counsel * Why all patent attorneys should pay attention to patent policy developments Notable, Quotable On the role of IP in ensuring that medical research reaches patients “It’s roughly a billion dollars to develop that drug and actually make it accessible to patients as a drug. No one’s going to make that investment without IP. My role at the institute is to protect that discovery so that somebody will make that investment. Without the investment, it’s just going to sit in the laboratory and it’s not going to go anywhere and it won’t reach patients.” On the impact of march-in proposal on non profits like Dana-Farber “I’ve already had partners tell us: I’m willing to sponsor your research, I’m willing to help fund your research, but it can’t have any federally funded funding associated with it. Well, that can be catastrophic to us.” ABA-IPL Chair’s Town Hall: Planning a Better Patent System Register for “Session 6: How Far Can, And Should , USPTO Rulemaking Proceed in Addressing Issues of Double Patenting”: https://www.americanbar.org/groups/intellectual_property_law/events_cle/aba-ipl-chairs-town-hall/ This is a public episode.

Florian Mueller shares his remarkable journey from leading a major fight against pro-software patent legislation in Europe to becoming one of the most influential voices in the IP world. For over a decade, his FOSS Patents blog became the go-to destination for anyone who wanted to follow developments related to standard-essential patents (SEPs). After a brief hiatus, Florian recently reemerged as the publisher of ip fray , which is quickly starting to play the role for all of IP that FOSS previously played for SEPs. Drawing on his extensive background, Florian provides fascinating insights about what led to the European Union’s controversial SEP proposal, the potential outcomes, and the burgeoning influence of AI on patent law. He also shares the story of why and how Real Madrid came to him asking for help along the way. Key Topics: * How German court decisions and other alleged dynamics led to EU’s pending SEP proposal * Problems with EU’s pending SEP proposal * How the rest of the process is likely to play out at the EU & related strategies * Why innovators are at a disadvantage in the debate * Shifting views of different tech companies regarding SEPs over time * Role of patent pools/platforms in the SEP battles * Impact of AI This is a public episode.

For almost 30 years - under the leadership of giants like Marshall Phelps, David Kappos, and Manny Schechter, IBM led in obtaining the most patents per year. However, in 2020, IBM made the decision to no longer pursue the goal of “numeric patent leadership.” It went from obtaining over 8500 patents in 2021 to, by some counts, less than 5000. Nonetheless, IBM remains one of the top American patentees. Mark Vallone joins Eli to discuss how he stepped into one of the most significant roles in the patent world last year while this dramatic shift in IBM’s patent strategy was taking place. Thanks for reading Voice of IP! Subscribe for free to receive updates. On this episode, Mark talks about how IBM's heritage of innovation and patent leadership informs its decisions. He also provides an in-depth perspective on why and how IBM transitioned away from numeric leadership goals and toward a more balanced, quality-focused approach. The episode provides thought-provoking insights into the challenges of growing and managing a vast IP portfolio, including the value of incentive programs for inventors and the mechanics behind strategic patent portfolio pruning decisions. Key Topics: * Succeeding as in-house counsel * IBM's Strategic Shift - departing from their numeric patent leadership goal to focus on patent quality and aligning with their current business model. * Portfolio Management - detailed advice on pruning patent portfolios, including strategies for maintenance fees and monetization. * Hybrid Model - how and why IBM uses both in-house and outside counsel for patent preparation and prosecution work * Harnessing AI in Patenting - the future role of generative AI in improving quality of patent applications and the productivity of patent drafters, and the importance of cautious adoption considering legal and ethical implications Notable, Quotable On continued role of numeric goals "I don't think you abandon numbers. I think they're certainly a part of the calculus, and you have to look at that in order to adequately protect your business." The one change he’d make to America’s patent system "I would love to see us fix subject matter eligibility. I would love to see us restore that certainty to the system." Please share with others!

In this special two-part episode, we delve into the creation, implementation, and strategic importance of Europe's Unified Patent Court (UPC) with UPC Judge Michael Fleuchaus and Dr. Benjamin Grau. The first part of the show highlights Judge Fleuchaus' experience as a newly appointed technical qualified judge at the UPC. Judge Fleuchaus discusses the motivations behind the UPC's establishment and overarching goal to streamline patent litigation across the European Union. He also discusses his role as a technical judge working alongside experienced legally qualified judges and shares the perspective they bring to handling cases together at the UPC. This segment provides priceless insights about how UPC proceedings differ from patent litigation within and outside of Europe and how litigants can maximize their chances of success at the UPC. In the latter part of the episode, Dr. Grau provides a distinct viewpoint as a European patent attorney closely observing the UPC. Dr. Grau casts light on the myths and practicalities surrounding opting in or out of the UPC and gives valuable advice on how to leverage the UPC to obtain the best possible patent protection in Europe. Dr. Grau's perspective is crucial for those interested in understanding the strategic considerations that come into play with the UPC's inception. This is a public episode.

Ofinno’s founder Esmael Dinan and CEO Kavon Nasabzadeh join the Clause 8 podcast to tell Ofinno’s unique story of succeeding in the patent monetization space and talk about its plans for the future. After spending years as an inventor at a large operating company, Esmael came to the conclusion that most such companies aren’t good at obtaining valuable standard essential patents (SEPs) on their own. This spurred him to found Ofinno in 2011, an R&D lab that would obtain such patents. He almost quit after spending his savings and initially failing to find any buyer for Ofinno’s patents. Instead, Ofinno went on to sell patents to companies like Samsung, Comcast, Huawei, and Honda. Ofinno recently joined Avanci’s 5G Connected Vehicle licensing program and is executing on plans to start its own licensing programs in a wide variety of other technology areas, including next generation Wi-Fi, video compression, and semiconductors. Esmael and Kavon also discuss: Kavon joining Offino as its first in-house patent attorney and becoming CEO earlier this year How Ofinno structures its patent development program to obtain valuable patents And, much more!
