Global Perspectives on Monetization: The International Landscape

Global Perspectives on Monetization: The International Landscape

View Session Speakers

Patent portfolio licensing has long been a critical part of the way innovators and implementers organize their affairs, trade rights and assets, and stay out of court. Over much of the last generation, however, an imbalance has taken hold in the United States, which has forced innovators and implementers to increasingly turn to the judicial system rather than coming to arms length negotiated resolutions. Meanwhile, international patent portfolios have risen in value as patent rights and enforcement environments have become more favorable to patent owners outside the United States, such as in the United Kingdom, Germany, China and elsewhere around the world. Further, as software, medical diagnostics and certain biotechnology related innovations continue to face strong headwinds on the patent eligibility front in the United States, such innovations are more reliably protected in Europe and China, moving start-ups and investors to those parts of the world.

Join us for a discussion on the current state of patent portfolio monetization across Europe, China and elsewhere around the globe, with specific comparison to the monetization marketplace in the United States. Where are deals getting done and what technologies are hot? What are best practices for getting value out of an IP portfolio in China? What is driving patent licensing deals in China and Europe? Which companies are winning the global race for 5G supremacy? Who is in the best position as of today for 6G?
