FRAND License Negotiations
Those attending this workshop will engage in a mediated negotiation to arrive at a mutually agreeable FRAND license. If you like cooperative games, then you will love this workshop! Everyone wins or loses together. Participants will be broken into 2 teams, one representing a SEP holder with a large SEP portfolio covering a new teleportation standard and one team representing an OEM with products that implement the standard. Initial license terms and an issues list will be provided. Each side will have a set of directives from their respective CEOs indicating which terms are “showstoppers.” The teams will need to find ways to compromise on license terms while avoiding showstoppers. While you do not need to be an experienced patent licensing attorney, you do need to have a basic understanding of standards-related patent and licensing issues.
Instructor: Michele Herman, JusTech Law

Navigating the Intersection Between IP and Regulatory Exclusivities for Protecting and Evaluating Pharmaceutical, Biologic, and Medical Device Products
This panel will discuss why IP practitioners should become familiar with regulatory exclusivities and how this knowledge brings value to stakeholders focused on product and business development in the pharmaceutical, biologic, and medical device spaces. Regulatory and patent exclusivity drive significant value during the product development lifecycle and can be critical factors in patent prosecution strategy and in the evaluation of merger and acquisition, licensing opportunities and/or litigation. In the commercialization of medical products, regulatory strategy is often inextricably intertwined with other business and legal topics, such as intellectual property protection and competitive intelligence. This panel will discuss, from both a regulatory and IP perspective, how alignment of strategy can help identify opportunities to leverage exclusivity windows which may be driven by both patent protection, and regulatory submissions. It is important for both private and in-house counsel practitioners (particularly those practicing in patent prosecution, patent litigation, and IP transactions) to understand both the regulatory and patent regimes that provide exclusivity protection for pharmaceutical, biologic, and medical device products to provide more value to clients engaged in product and/or business development in this space.
