IP operations, and your reputation, depend on absolute accuracy regarding tasks such as docketing, reminders, and reporting. However, human processes are inherently error prone and the knowledge and skill are very siloed within small groups. This has necessitated significant investments in technology and human redundancy. These approaches are becoming inadequate with demands for speed and downward cost pressures. For example, most corporate, law firm, and outsourcing group collaborative efforts are still dependent on email and human action in response thereto. Modern advances in intellectual property management systems, automation, and outsourcing are providing more robust solutions, but the new technologies and automation services introduce entirely new vocabularies, technical complexities, and new risks. Our panel of IP operations and technology veterans will provide an overview of the evolving technical and service landscapes and introduce you to new, cutting-edge solutions to simplify your IP back office that are increasing accuracy and efficiency while simultaneously reducing cost, headcount, and risk.
