About the Program
The webinar discussion will examine recent legal developments impacting how bankruptcy affects IP licenses. Topics will include:
- What you need to know before advising clients on the effect of bankruptcy on IP licenses.
- Analysis of the latest developments, including In re Qimonda, A.G., which held that German law governed license rights of a German debtor even though the agreement with the U.S. licensee was expressly governed by U.S. law.
- Perspective on how these trends may impact your debtor/nondebtor and licensor/licensee clients, how future license agreements may be drafted and what you may do now to protect clients' interests.
- Answers to 10 questions most-often asked by bankruptcy lawyers on advising clients on the effect of bankruptcy on IP licenses.
- Case studies and lessons learned on other bankruptcy lawyers' actions for clients on the assumption, assignment, or rejection of IP licenses in bankruptcy proceedings.
