Inaugural Event Hosts the Nation’s Foremost IP Experts to Share Patent Data & Trends
WASHINGTON, D.C., Oct. 25, 2019 -- The D.C. Intellectual Property Forum will debut October 30, 2019 at the National Press Club. This ground-breaking event facilitates first-of-its-kind, direct communication and information sharing among federal agencies, members of the United States Congress, congressional staff, IP industry legal practitioners, leading industry experts, media personnel and other industry pundits from one singular and dynamic platform.
The forum is spearheaded patent attorney and globally-regarded IP authority JiNan Glasgow George, a former USPTO patent examiner and engineer who co-developed the Magic Number Patent Forecast software—a comprehensive intelligence tool leveraging machine learning to uncover silent trends sweeping the business landscape, revealing who is filing patents, when and in what sectors.
The forum will include participation among a select group of industry experts and advisors to the United States Congress and federal agency space on comprehensive IP industry issues.
“This conference will drive home how and why intellectual property is not just an idea, concept or invention, but rather is a financial asset that can render tangible results,” JiNan notes. “With this kind of AI-driven data, organizations can easily detect early-stage shifts and pinpoint other trends and marketplace insights to give companies a tremendous competitive edge. Key learning from this event will help organizations shift their mentality away from patents being seen as merely a way to protect their own idea and, instead, regard them as a means to grow a business and create wealth through intellectual property-driven analytics and key business assets that drive revenue. This can include analyzing the competition through a uniquely telling lens, deciding which products to build next, identifying 'white space' industry opportunity and more.”
The event is designed to help corporations, entrepreneurs, inventors, investors, law makers, and other IP stakeholders learn little known insights, save time and investment by untangling the myriad of data necessary to identify and capitalize on intellectual property trends.
“The USPTO actually issued its 10 millionth patent number in June 2018 and is on-track to issue the most patents ever by the end of this year—a rapid rise in patents that can largely be contributed to IP-based products quickly leading inventors and entrepreneurs into unfamiliar and often risky territory,” JiNan continued. “The unfortunate truth remains that a great number of organizations aiming to build valuable IP portfolios aren’t aware, nor understand, the value that data-crunching patent tools bring them. Bold entrepreneurs have yearned for a ‘data-roadmap,’ so we established this forum to help participants gain a competitive edge by easily understanding how to identify and analyze who is filing patents, when and in what sectors so they can detect early-stage shifts and pinpoint other analytics-driven opportunities and threats.”
With the Veteran’s Day holiday approaching, the D.C. Intellectual Property Forum will include a breakout session focused on tactical strategies helping U.S. military veteran business owners better recognize, understand and leverage IP trends and legislation—a discussion that will include John Berry, CEO of the Berry Law firm. This is an important dialogue as veteran business owners represent over 1 trillion in receipts, employ over five million people, and has annual payroll over 200 billion.
The DC Intellectual Property Forum has been formatted to provide information for all levels of today’s IP-minded professionals.
