Strengthening Ties: How US Firms Are Responding to the UPC
Intellectual Property Chair Michael Renaud was quoted by Managing IP in an article about how firms in the US are responding to the Unified Patent Court (UPC), which opened over a year ago. Mike mentions the ongoing collaborative effort between lawyers and their international counterparts and explains how businesses are going to continue to grapple with which courts to prioritize when asserting patents.
He says, “As the case law develops and the courts give guidance, that will clarify whether the UPC is a nice extra or the center of gravity.”
