Patent
rights are territorial. Right seekers often file first in their home country
and then in one or more foreign countries via priority claiming to both
preserve the earlier home country filing date and to gain time for market
assessment in foreign markets. These marketing activities are often intended
to be strategic for the right seekers and their businesses, which makes
knowing well the priority claiming as a patent management tool undoubtedly
crucial for the practitioners to achieve the best possible representation.
This webinar aims to examine various features of priority claiming
in the U.S. and several other active patent jurisdictions, namely Japan,
Europe, China and Korea, and at the very least to provide an analysis roadmap
for inquiries on priority claiming with a comparative view before these five
jurisdictions.
