Why You Should Attend
Licensing has been used by companies to obtain technology and content beyond their key areas or at reduced cost. In today's economic climate of tighter budgets this is more important than ever. The ability to craft, draft and negotiate complex license agreements is crucial to successful transactions in licensing patents, trade secrets, trademarks or copyrights.

This conference provides insight on complex issues arising in drafting and negotiating licenses and practical tips for addressing contested issues, along with updates on recent case law, new definitions, royalty terms and new technology and business models.

Our distinguished faculty address licensing issues for various industries and technology settings and from both outside counsel and in-house perspectives.

We hope to see you there.
