I will be moderating the event described in this announcement, which is free and open to the public. The Zoom link is here.
Join us for "German FRAND Cases: The EC’s Amicus Brief and Other Developments" on Thursday, November 14, 2024, | 16:00 (Central European Time) | 15:00 (Greenwich Time) | 9:00 a.m. (U.S. Central Time)
This one-hour webinar will focus on the developing German case law concerning FRAND-committed standard-essential patents (SEPs); the possible impact of the European Commission’s amicus brief in the pending HMD Global Oy v. VoiceAge EVS GmbH & Co. KG case; and a comparative look at both SEP litigation and the use of amicus briefs or observations in IP disputes outside the European Union.
Speakers include: Prof.Dr. Peter Georg Picht (University of Zurich), Professor Tom Cotter (University of Minnesota), and Erik Habich (Ph.D. candidate, University of Zurich), coeditors of the recently-released edited volume FRAND: German Case Law and Global Developments (Edward Elgar 2024), as well as Judge Hubertus Schacht (Munich Regional Court), Lord Justice Richard Arnold (Court for Appeal for England and Wales), and Professor Jorge Contreras (University of Utah)
