Presents
A Round Table on
“Evolving Jurisprudence on Patent Remedies (PatRem)”
Date: 25th and 26
th March 2017
Venue: International Conference Hall,
National Law School of India University, Bangalore
-
CONCEPT NOTE There is a relentless effort among public and
private companies to build high technology and complex products and
these products may embody several patented inventions/technologies.
Thus, such products are generally patent rigorous (PR) products. It
is not uncommon to see such patent rigorous products embodying
multiples of thousands of patents. For example, a mobile device
such as a smartphone1 is estimated to be impacted by 2.5 lakh
patents and a laptop2 is estimated to embody more 250 standards and
several of these standards may require consideration of thousands
of patents. These high technology products are very different
compared to other non-patent intensive (NPI) products such as an
electric bulb or a medical drug, which may embody one (or very few)
patents. The existence of such NPI products may be substantially
equated to practice of a patent (or very few patents). For example,
Edison’s electric bulb embodied only few patents and predominantly
a single patented (US 223898, Jan 1880) invention could be equated
to Edison’s electric bulb. These products (PR and NPI) are very
different from each other from the perspective of patents embodied
in such products. A patent embodied in a PR type product
contributes to a fraction of the total value of the PR product and
a patent embodied in a NPI product contributes to a substantial
value of the PRI product.
This roundtable has an objective of assessing/reviewing emerging
jurisprudence, practices, and changing landscape while shaping
patent remedies in India. Patent remedies will have a major impact
on Innovation and IP protection as we are move up the innovation
value chain while embarking on a “Digital India”, “Make in India”,
“Design-in-India”, “Start-up India”, journey. This roundtable is
intended to bring together honourable members of the judiciary,
enforcement agencies such as Competition Commission of India (CCI)
and members of appellate boards such as IPAB to review this
subject.
You are cordially invited to participate in the Roundtable on
Evolving
Jurisprudence on Patent Remedies.
