“I am thrilled to be Co-Chairing the Institute for Law and Technology Forum and that Paul Hastings has the opportunity to promote a discussion focused on procuring, licensing and litigation patents in China, “said Steve Korniczky, Chair of Paul Hastings Global Intellectual Property Practice. “Paul Hastings was one of the first US based law firms to enter the China market and since that time, the firm has been at the fore front of providing education and resources to the legal and business communities in China and the US.”

The first day of the conference will focus on the essential considerations for filing patents in China today, common licensing and partnering approaches and the basics of the Chinese patent system itself.
