Our next annual Intellectual Property Seminar will take place on the 11 September 2024 at our office in Birmingham. This event is designed for businesses with significant intellectual property portfolios, trade mark and patent attorneys, offering a diverse range of topics to help navigate the issues and challenges that impact day-to-day operations. Key topics include the legal sufficiency of patent specifications and the necessity of a technical contribution to ensure the patent has an inventive step, key IP licensing pitfalls and opportunities with a focus on cross-border considerations, and the emerging issue of “upcycling” in trade mark law, where recycled goods are marketed often displaying original marks amidst rising environmental concerns.
Location: Shakespeare Martineau, One Colmore Square, Birmingham, B4 6AA
