    Trailblazer & Troublemaker: The Extraordinary Life Story of Judge Pauline Newman

    Send us a text In a spirited discussion at our annual Women’s IP Forum, attendees were treated to an insightful fireside-style chat conversation with the Honorable Judge Pauline Newman, a trailblazer for women in law and a luminary in the field of intellectual property. Judge Newman spoke with Renee C. Quinn, Chief Operating Officer of IPWatchdog, Inc., about her extraordinary career and her life journey. Judge Newman has served with distinction on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit since her appointment by President Ronald Reagan in 1984. Her career has been marked by a commitment to innovation and the advancement of strong intellectual property rights, shaping the very foundation of modern patent law. But did you know that Judge Newman was until a few years ago an active and licensed pilot? Did you know that she tutored singer and songwriting legend Joan Baez in chemistry when Baez was in high school? While so much of Judge Newman’s life has been well documented, there are so many layers to the extraordinary life of Judge Pauline Newman.  Join us this week for her thoughts on life, patriotism, the law, and whether she ever experienced imposter syndrome as she climbed to the highest echelon of the male dominated worlds of innovation and intellectual property.  Visit us online at IPWatchdog.com.

    IP as a Force for Good: A Conversation with WIPO Director General Daren Tang

    Send us a text This week on IPWatchdog Unleashed, I had the pleasure of speaking with Daren Tang, Director General of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Our conversation spanned a range of topics, from the future of intellectual property (IP), to how intellectual property has been a force for helping humanity, to WIPO's strategic initiatives and the burgeoning impact of artificial intelligence (AI). A central theme of our conversation was Tang’s fervent advocacy for intellectual property as a catalyst for global innovation and betterment of the human condition.   ”IP is about one of the most fundamental things about what it means to be human being,” Tang explained. “Which is to look at the world, imagine how it could be different and apply all tools and knowledge and energies to making that a reality. And IP is part of making, facilitating and enabling that. So, if we look at IP at the highest possible form in its highest broadest way, that's what it really is about. I mean, the laws and regulations and all that is important. Building up IP ecosystems is at its best about helping us as humanity. To shape the world and make it a better place. That's, that's why this mission is for me is, not to be cliched, but it's almost sacred in a way." With enthusiasm, he recounted how WIPO has embraced its role as a facilitator of IP knowledge, and actively helping nations understand and leverage IP as a tool for economic growth. We also discuss next-gen technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), and discuss why he is seeking a second term as WIPO Director General.  Visit us online at IPWatchdog.com.

    PTAB Turbulence: It's a Good Time to be a Patent Owner

    Send us a text In this week’s IPWatchdog Unleashed podcast, we dive into the intricacies of patent enforcement with Scott McKeown, a partner with Wolf Greenfield and author of PatentsPostGrant.com. McKeown, who has a reputation as one of America’s top practitioners at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), shares insights into the continually evolving landscape of patents, patent litigation, PTAB challenges and regulatory and administrative upheaval at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). We discuss the increase in discretionary denials under the Trump Administration, the fact that across all aspects of government it seems we are governing by memorandum, how what we are seeing at the USPTO now is a snap back from the past several years but won't last forever, the demise of the patent examiners union, and more. At the end McKeown tells us " if you're asserting patents, it's a great time" because "the PTAB has been, been beaten down." He also wryly concludes that alleged infringers should probably " invest in some hotels in Texas and because it's going to be the Wild West down there for a couple years."

  5. What the New USPTO Memo on 101 Means for Eligibility Rejections

    What the New USPTO Memo on 101 Means for Eligibility Rejections

    Send us a text In this week’s edition of IPWatchdog Unleashed, my conversation is with Clint Mehall, a partner with Davidson Kappel, LLC, and John Rogitz, who is managing attorney for Rogitz & Associates. Both are prominent voices in the patent world, and they also serve on our ad hoc IPWatchdog Advisory Committee.  The purpose of our conversation was to explore the patent eligibility landscape, and particularly the August 4 memo on patent eligibility from Deputy Commissioner of Patents Charles Kim, which was sent to Technology Centers 2100, 2600 and 3600.   The memo was labeled as a reminder on the proper evaluation of subject matter eligibility of claims under 35 U.S.C. 101. And it was also specifically stated that the “memorandum is not intended to announce any new USPTO practice or procedure and is meant to be consistent with existing USPTO guidance.” Notwithstanding, there does seem to be important new emphasis on the patent eligibility inquiry, and particularly on when rejections are appropriate.  Visit us online at IPWatchdog.com.

    The Intangible Economy: Realizing Wealth from Innovation, IP and Trade

    Send us a text In our latest edition of IPWatchdog Unleashed, host Gene Quinn welcomes back Patrick Kilbride, known to many throughout the industry for serving as the Senior Executive Vice President at the United States Chamber of Commerce's Global Innovation Policy Center for 15 years. Drawing from his extensive experience across corporate, university, and industry association sectors, Kilbride discusses the critical components required for a thriving innovation ecosystem and discusses the intricate balance needed between production capabilities and policy frameworks. About a year ago Kilbride, a veteran in the trade and intellectual property policy communities, founded Kilbride Public Affairs, where he provides public policy advise, advocacy and education, with a focus on helping clients within the innovation ecosystem as they work to navigate the economics of innovation and intellectual property. Kilbride recounted his transformative journey from skepticism about intellectual property—often regarded as a hindrance in trade agreements during his time as a U.S. Trade Representative during the George W. Bush administration—to becoming a staunch advocate for IP.  He argues for a system where novel work is protected by law, honoring the American founders' vision that property rights should be tied to labor. Kilbride’s vision is clear: fostering an environment where innovation thrives and where the United States can lead to the leveraging intangible assets, including those assets that general accounting principles refuse to recognize.  Visit us online at IPWatchdog.com.
