Patent laws have undergone drastic changes in the last few years, but what do all of these changes mean to the non-patent lawyer, businessperson, or engineer? On Tuesday, December 3, starting at 5:30 p.m. in the Irvine office, a panel of intellectual property (IP) partners from Knobbe Martens will explain how recent developments in IP influence the way businesses operate and how engineers approach IP.

Topics will include strategies for protecting your inventions under the new first-inventor-to-file system, what is still patentable in view of recent U.S. Supreme Court cases, how to get your patents quickly, and what is a patent “troll” and why this may matter to you.
