International Intellectual Property : Is the IP World Flat?
Santa Clara Computer & High Technology Law Journal is hosting its annual symposium Friday, January 27, 2012, at the Locatelli Center on Santa Clara University’s campus. From its inception, the Computer & High Technology Law Journal has earned an excellent reputation for fostering legal scholarship and discourse on emerging issues at the juncture of technology, the law and public policy. We are proud to bring together some of the nation's leaders in the legal community, academia and business to discuss and debate current hot topics in international intellectual property. Our distinguished panelists will present various aspects of the evolving international IP landscape, including discussion of patent harmonization, domestic and foreign non-practicing entities, Chinese intellectual property law and various e-Privacy regimes.
Specifically, our first panelists will discuss the trend toward international patent harmonization, including the United States’ efforts with the recently enacted America Invents Act. The second panel will consider the emergence, influence, and business and legal strategies of non-practicing entities both domestic and abroad. After lunch, our third panel will address the rise of Chinese IP. Our final panel will focus on the importance of privacy rights in this digital age and present a comparative analysis of different e-Privacy regimes.
These discussions will surely provide all attendees with a new perspective and better understanding of the generation, protection and dissemination of intellectual property in the international arena. The Journal will provide a breakfast buffet, lunch, drinks, and a wine and cheese reception for all registered attendees. Volume 28 of the Computer & High Technology Journal sincerely thanks you for your interest, attendance and support.
