ACI 5th annual Paragraph IV Disputes. This is a “must-attend” event for in-house counsel

March 25, 2011 - PRLog -- Full agenda information is available at http://www.americanconference.com/2011/761/paragraph-iv-disputes


You can maximize value for your entire team by registering for the main conference, the pre-conference Hatch-Waxman and BPCIA 101 Workshop, and the post-conference Master Class on Settlements at a discounted rate of $3590.  One person can attend the entire event; however, this registration can also be split among different members of your team.  For example, you can attend the main conference, send a less experienced team member to the Hatch- Waxman BPCIA 101 Workshop and let yet another team member attend the Master Class --- and best of all --- each person will earn substantial CLE credit for a little over $1000 a piece.  Also note, that each of the workshops can be purchased alone, exclusive of the main conference.

It’s Where All the Key In-House Industry Players Are!

Leading  in-house pharmaceutical patent attorneys --- for both brand names and generics as well as the biopharmaceutical industry -- have made this event their source of information for the legal issues surrounding Paragraph IV Disputes.  This conference is the meeting place for in-house patent counsel to network and share ideas and has been shaped by an Advisory Board comprised of some of the best known and respected in-house patent lawyers.  Do not miss this opportunity to brainstorm with your in-house peers and meet industry legends and pioneers.

Meet and Vet Your Law Firm Counsel

This is the conference where the “Who’s Who” of leading Paragraph IV litigators for both brand names and generics gather and present.  These are the attorneys from the leading IP firms who were not only pioneers in this field, but those who are now on the cutting edge of the evolution of this law and its possible implications for what is emerging from this atmosphere of legislative as well as scientific change. Don’t miss your chance to see these litigators in action and assess their  strategies for scaling the patent cliff.

A Master Class on Settlements and a Primer on Hatch-Waxman Fundamentals

Complete your networking and learning experience  by attending one or both of our informative and hands-on workshops:
•   Hatch-Waxman and BPCIA 101 — A Primer on IP Basics and Regulatory Fundamentals will provide you with the patent and regulatory backdrop for the more in-depth Hatch-Waxman litigation controversies discussed in the main conference as well as an introduction to biosimilars; and
•   The Master Class on Settling Paragraph IV Disputes: Drafting and Negotiating Strategies for Brand-Names and Generics will give you practical and hands-on strategies for drafting and negotiating settlement agreements that will pass muster with the FTC.
