Forum Wars or Forum Steering? Global licence determinations, cross border complexities, ADR and the next stage of FRAND Disputes

3 Jun 14:00 - 15:30

Arbitration-related Litigation, Commercial Arbitration, Cross-border Disputes, Intellectual Property

Alongside exploring the strategic impact of and extent to which courts will determine the terms and value of global patent portfolio licences, including interim declarations, our international panel (covering the UK, USA, India, Germany and the UPC) will address the next round of developments in this continually evolving landscape, which have placed a spotlight on the role of arbitration and mediation in the resolution process.

Drawing on their experience advising on and litigating these matters across multiple jurisdictions, the panel will examine how this continually evolving case law is reshaping multijurisdictional patent disputes and the practical challenges it presents for parties managing cross border litigation. Covering recent developments, this will include examining:

The role of arbitration and mediation in resolving complex IP and technology disputes, particularly in a FRAND context;
How these recent developments are likely to be interpreted across different jurisdictions;
The comparative advantages and limitations of arbitration, mediation and coordinated multi-jurisdictional litigation; and
How these recent developments may further impact global litigation and ADR strategy.

Designed for arbitration specialists, litigators, IP practitioners and commercial advisers alike, this session will provide practical insights into navigating an ever-evolving dispute resolution landscape.
