Machine Learning and AI: Applications, Legal and Ethical Issues, and Practical Guidance for Prosecution (Dec 2019)

Companies are investing heavily in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning technologies with vast arrays of applications of Neural Networks to perform complex tasks with great speed with the advent of 5G wireless technologies and stronger processing capabilities. This panel explores the components of AI/ML technologies, its applications, and how intellectual rights in these technologies can be protected including patent prosecution and data administration strategies. In addition, ethical concerns are raised as to the extent such technologies test the bounds of privacy and supplant human activities and we also explore these concerns.

Case Law and Regulatory Antitrust Developments Post-Actavis (Dec 2019)

​Complaints about drug prices have lead to expansion of antitrust problems for Pharma. Legislation has imposed new government reporting requirements for patent licenses in the Pharma industry. Other legislation is pending to impose new antitrust risks and penalties on the Pharma industry. Case law on  “reverse settlements” has snowballed since FTC v. Actavis, and now reaches even non-cash settlement terms. Standard-setting has now become a part of the Pharma and medical device industry, bringing with it disclosure, FRAND and antitrust issues. Hear more on enacted and pending legislation, case law developments, and future trends in antitrust in the Pharma Industry.
