European Competition Day: Competition Law and its Surroundings - Links and New Trends (Áustria)

2006-06-19

The European Competition Day 2006 will be organised together by Austria and Finland, the two EU-Presidencies of 2006 and will be titled Competition Law and its Surroundings – Links and New Trends.

The morning session (“Do Mergers keep what they promise?”) will discuss the example of a recent merger, the situation in transitional economies and if the EC Merger Regulation really entails a new approach.

The afternoon session (“Links and Trends in Antitrust Policy”) will focus on the impact of different areas of law on the combat of anticompetitive practices, on international experiences with the effects of antitrust policy and on the interaction between public and private enforcement and the role of leniency.

The European Competition Day will be opened by Commissioner Neelie Kroes and the Austrian Minister of Economics and Labour, Martin Bartenstein. Among the speakers there will be Philip Lowe, Emil Paulis and Professor Tomi Laamanen.

International Business and Competition Policy (Reino Unido)

2006-06-23

An international panel will examine the impact of competition policy on businesses’ future investment plans and trading patterns. The event will also examine how globalisation and increased foreign investment and trade flows means that national competition policies and regulatory practices can have significant repercussions on an international level.

It will debate whether competition laws provide business with a sufficient level of consistency, predictability and efficiency to assist corporate planning and development, or whether they simply generate more hurdles with an insufficient counterbalancing benefit for business and consumers alike.

Preventing and Defending Patent Litigation (Estados Unidos)

2006-06-22 – 2006-06-23

Patent litigation has continued to increase, a likely reflection of the continued recognition of the increased value of intellectual property assets. In addition, patent law is constantly changing and patent litigation raises a large degree of uncertainty, complicated legal and technical issues and is more complex than most other litigation. More and more, it is increasingly difficult to anticipate how the courts address patents and infringement cases. Are you ready to protect your company’s most lucrative products for today and tomorrow?

The business context in which the patent is being litigated adds to the overall complexity of the entire situation. With the high cost of litigation, some product or company is frequently at risk of being shut down in the litigation. Patent litigation is uncertain and expensive, and companies want certainty, in regards to what the probability of success might be, how much it is going to cost and the dispute settled satisfactorily. You cannot afford to miss this event on new litigation, legislation and other events that could dramatically impact your company’s bottom line.

This senior-level forum will give you the opportunity to gain insight from a diverse group of patent litigation experts from various pioneering companies to successfully improve the breadth and scope of your skills to assert your patent rights. By attending this conference you gain valuable insight into today’s major issues facing your company and insight of our distinguished faculty’s best practices and successful methodologies to defend your patents amongst your competitors. This is one event you cannot afford to miss.
