2 EIGHTH ANNUAL U.S. PATENT LITIGATION TRAINING PROGRAM FOR ASIAN CORPORATIONS Knowing how to effectively conduct a patent litigation in the United States is a vital component in developing an elite patent protection plan for your company. Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP, has created a highly interactive course that not only makes the subject entertaining, but also increases your ability and confidence in effectively communicating with and instructing your U.S. counsel. During this intensive five-day program, you will learn the principles of U.S. patent litigation, as well as observe and participate in mock demonstrations of those principles. During numerous practical exercises, you will follow the progress of a hypothetical U.S. patent infringement litigation, starting with what happens before the lawsuit is filed, all the way through the appellate process. You will observe and participate in mock depositions, Markman and summary judgment hearings, settlement negotiations, trials, and appeals. You will actively assist in supervising one of the litigation teams. A special focus of this program is to provide training on how you, as the in-house representative of your company, can effectively manage your U.S. patent litigation counsel. The course also focuses on how to effectively coordinate the needs of your company in balancing the requirements of the litigation. As part of the program, you will visit the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (the famous Rocket Docket ), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC). The class will have a unique opportunity to meet privately with judges to hear their personal stories and to ask questions. Attendance is limited to maximize your contact with course instructors and other attendees. WHY THIS TRAINING PROGRAM IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER COURSES You will actively participate in supervising a litigation team and work with fellow attendees in deciding how to manage your team to victory. The course is specially designed to provide training on the unique needs of Asian corporations litigating in the United States. The highly interactive program, led by experienced litigators, covers all aspects of U.S. patent litigation and provides practical advice and extensive educational materials.
