One of the major debates dominating the current discourse on resolving disputes relating to Standard Essential Patents (SEPs) is its ever-increasing extraterritorial implications. It is becoming common practice for courts to be required to address issues such as global rate setting and the use of Anti-Suit Injunctions (ASIs) within a geopolitical and geo-economics paradigm.

The webinar organized by LES Italy will present the impact of cross-border judgements, highlighting why ASIs should be considered in contrast with freedom to enjoy national tribunal decisions and which corrective measures should be introduced to prevent their use.

Introduction: Mattia Dalla Costa, President LES Italy – CBA

Moderator: Roberto Dini, Metroconsult

Speakers:

  • Prof. Mario Franzosi, Studio Legale Franzosi Dal Negro Setti
  • Cordula Schumacher, Arnold Ruess
  • Sir Robin Jacob, Retired Judge at the Court of Appeal of England and Wales, and Sir Hugh Laddie Chair of Intellectual Property Law, UCL
  • Paul R. Michel, Retired Chief Judge at the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
  • Valentina Piola, Sisvel
