DIFI seminar 13th October 2022:
What should be considered when drawing up and concluding IPR license agreements?
As intellectual property rights, including trademarks, designs, copyrights and patents, become increasingly important for the business community, interest in licensing agreements is also growing. For many companies, licensing agreements are a central part of the business e.g. to access critical technology, ensure freedom to operate or to out-license IPR to generate additional value stream.
But how to work in practice with licensing agreements? What do you have to consider when designing, drafting, negotiating and concluding license agreements? What are the most important clauses? What pitfalls must be avoided? And equally important, after the ink is dry, what then about unforeseen developments, change of business priorities, language interpretations etc.?
Rasmus Linnemann Krogh-Meyer, Head of IP License & Partnering at Novozymes A/S and Richard Wessman, Partner and Head of IP at the law firm Vinge, highlighted these subjects from their different perspectives.

DIFI-seminar den 23. marts 2022:
Over sø og land
– erfaringer med IP-retssager i USA
Dagens tema til DIFIs seminar den 23. marts 2022 var IP-retssager i USA. På scenen var Thomas Kirkbak (advokat, 3Shape) og Lars Conrad (EPA, Lundbeck), der delte ud af deres mange erfaringer med oversøiske retssager. De gjorde os blandt andet klogere på, hvordan man bedst forbereder sig til internationale patentretssager, hvilket materiale, der kan blive en del af processen, og hvilke regler og undtagelser man skal kende i forbindelse med Legal Privilege. De gennemgik faserne i en ANDA-sag og fremhævede det, som man skal være ekstra opmærksom på.
