2024 Sedona Conference on Global Intellectual Property Litigation

Developments in the legal landscapes in the U.S., Europe, and Asia are creating new risks and opportunities for IP litigation. Rapidly evolving case law, new guidelines from national competition authorities and other institutions, and legislative initiatives constantly shape this complex framework for plaintiffs and defendants. Within the European Union, the Unified Patent Court came into existence on 1 June 2023. We will have exactly 9 months of experience with the Unified Patent Court when we hold our 2024 Conference on Global IP Litigation.

This Conference – held in the home of the second section of the Central Division of the Unified Patent Court -- will continue the in-depth dialogue from our 2023 Conference on Global Intellectual Property Litigation. The Conference will be informed by The Sedona Conference’s Working Group 9 (Patent Damages & Remedies), 10 (Patent Litigation Best Practices) and 12 (Trade Secrets) published non-partisan consensus commentaries addressing tipping point issues in global IP litigation.

Monte Cooper will be a featured panelist on the panel titled, "International Enforcement of Trade Secrets."
