Event Synopsis:

The increasing number of materials used for 3D printing is indicative of its sweeping impact on a wide range of industries. Through 3D printing, companies are able to cut costs in improving their existing products or in developing new ones. However, as companies take advantage of the innovation and business development opportunities fostered by 3D printing, intellectual property (IP) protection in this growing field of technology is becoming more complex. IP owners and their counsel must prepare enforcement strategies to effectively guard IP rights.

In this live webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders will help IP owners and counsel understand the important aspects of this significant topic. They will provide an in-depth discussion of 3D Printing and its implications to IP rights. Speakers will also offer best practices in developing and implementing effective IP enforcement strategies to help businesses better position themselves in the emerging world of 3D printing.

Key topics include:

The 3D Printing Technology: An Overview
3D Printing and IP Laws
Common Pitfalls
Notable Cases
Best Enforcement Strategies
What Lies Ahead
