      What Are the Patents that Power Your Connected Devices? Discussing Methods for Identifying Essential Patents

      Technology standards like 5G have revolutionized the way we use our smartphones, and they are bringing similar changes to other industries as connectivity becomes an invaluable feature for most products. Although the next revolution in the industry is already underway, some have questioned whether the government needs to revise the system by providing more information about the patents that are essential to practice technology standards. Join Hudson Institute’s panel to learn more about the methodologies for identifying essential patents.

      Speakers:
      Steve Akerley, Vice President and Deputy General Counsel, InterDigital
      Dr. Katie Atkinson, Chair and Dean of the School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science, University of Liverpool

    • SEP Licensing & Proposed Legislation: Is there a problem & are these the fixes?

      There have been proposed legislation both in the European Commission and in the United States to address concerns about SEP licensing and litigation. One provision of specific interest in the EC proposal is that the European Patent Office would determine aggregate royalty rates for registered SEPS. A similar provision in the Standard Essential Royalty Act (SERA) in the US would lodge SEP rate setting in an independent court.  While there’s obviously high interest in legislating in this space, the first question is whether there’s even a problem that needs to be fixed. This panel will address the question of whether there’s a problem surrounding rate setting, what the exact problem is, and whether the EC proposal or SERA is likely to actually fix the real problem.
