SUMMARY

There is no longer serious doubt that global climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our generation and that a great majority of greenhouse gas emissions in developed countries emanate from urban centers. Hence city governments are uniquely positioned to develop and implement innovative climate change mitigation and adaptation policies. While the potential for improvement is ample, particular leadership has already been shown by certain cities in Europe and the U.S.

SUMMARY

Come to the one forum that will help you revise your strategies to adapt to new industry standards.

Emerging from a turbulent year of new case law, a resurgence of the proposed PTO rules, uncertainty associated with a new administration, and tough economic conditions, biotech patent practitioners must prepare for a new phase in this ever-evolving field. And with groundbreaking legislation regarding patent reform and follow-on biologics on the horizon, patent counsel must rise to the challenge to overcome increasing rejections, promote innovation and maximize profitability.

With this in mind, ACI’s 11th Advanced Forum on Biotech Patents once again brings together a high-caliber team of experienced biotech patent counsel who will share their collective knowledge and provide you with the most up to date strategies you can immediately incorporate into your practice.

Foley Hoag's Barbara Fiacco to speak at this conference.
