Attend our third Public Engagement Partnership meeting virtually on September 4, noon to 1 p.m. ET to get an overview of the process to challenge a patent before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).

Patient advocacy groups, public interest-focused nonprofits, academics, and all members of the public who want to learn how to challenge a patent before the USPTO are invited to join us.

We’ll cover:

  • The petition process, the policy behind the America Invents Act’s (AIA) creation of these proceedings, and PTAB’s procedures for conducting the proceedings
  • A case study showing a challenge to a pharmaceutical patent’s claims
  • Statistics on the use of these proceedings to challenge Orange Book-listed and biologics patents  

This event is free and open to all. Register today to attend virtually.
