The 2017 symposium will provide practical insights on recent trade secret protection and patent litigation developments, including the tradeoffs lawyers face when choosing the ITC as a venue for trade secret protection. The program will also include a recap of what companies should know about the U.S. Federal Defense of Trade Secrets Act, a conversation on strategies for addressing today’s complex and shifting array of global IP enforcement challenges, and a targeted overview of U.S. Federal Circuit and Supreme Court developments.
