Webinar – Future-proof your drug development investment with robust IP search strategies

Join Managing IP and CAS for a webinar at 5pm BST (12pm ET, 6pm CEST) on July 24 to learn how a strong intellectual property search strategy can ensure your pharmaceutical substance succeeds where others fail

A lack of novelty from the initial patent filing to post-grant actions such as inter partes review or infringement litigation can cause you to lose time and money.

How do you beat these odds? Plan for a professional search upfront to improve your chance of your patent being granted and enforceable.

In this webinar, experts Anne Marie Clark, Ph.D., senior patent searcher at CAS, and Heidi Berven, Ph.D., a partner at Honigman, will share best practices for intellectual property (IP) searching, including:

Essential novelty searches for pharmaceutical substances;
Tips for advanced IP search strategies and how they help to protect your research investment; and
The importance and hallmarks of trustworthy IP tools and partners.
