Live Webinar: Avoiding Risk and Fostering Innovation with Blockchain Patent Communities

Events Live Webinar: Avoiding Risk and Fostering Innovation with Blockchain Patent Communities Marc Kaufman March 22, 2021

About the Event:

Currently, there are over 30,000 patent families worldwide directed specifically to blockchain technologies. Therefore, despite the broad use of open source software in blockchain ecosystems, patents present a significant risk to blockchain innovators and their investors. However, there are various patent communities which can reduce the risk of excessive patent litigation for blockchain projects. This panel discussion will discuss the tapestry of patent communities that are available to blockchain innovators and how each community balances the rights of patent owners with the need for freedom to operate within the blockchain community.
