In this ChIPs Accelerators panel, in-house IP leaders and outside counsel explore how AI is changing work across the patent lifecycle, from identifying inventions and drafting applications to prosecution, licensing and litigation.
With perspectives from Verizon, BlackBerry, DLA Piper and Haynes and Boone, the discussion examines where AI can add value, how practitioners review its output, and how in-house teams and outside counsel share responsibility for the final work product. Moderated by Bree Vculek of Solve Intelligence, the session also explores the skills and training patent teams need as AI becomes part of everyday practice.
This session is for in-house IP counsel, patent attorneys, patent agents, licensing counsel and law firm leaders evaluating how to use AI in patent practice.
