VIEW AGENDAThe Only Event Tailored Directly to Pharma & Biotech Patent Litigators
ACI’s Forum on Pharma and Biotech Patent Litigation USA is now ACI’s Forum on Pharma and Biotech Patent Litigation USA & Canada! This year’s program is bigger and better than ever. Moving beyond the border, we’ll bring together industry leaders in life sciences patent litigation from across the US and Canada for two days of cautionary tales, critical concers, and champion patent litigation strategies. Then, on day 3, we’ll look across the ocean at the flurry of activity in the EU to prepare for the ripple effects on our shores.
Our highly skilled faculty – comprised of premier in-house and law firm patent litigation counsel – will keep you even keeled and ready to tackle the latest challenges facing patent litigators across North America.
Join us in New York for the only bespoke conference tailored directly to the questions, concerns, challenges, and successes of patent litigators in pharma and biotech.
