New Partners at the Patently-O Job Board:
- Invention Analysis & Claiming Strategies Seminar. Register for Ron Slusky’s unique program for patent prosecutors and receive a $50 discount as a Patently-O reader. The conference offers 13 hours of accredited CLE. Discount code: PO50. The seminar presents principles that enable patent prosecutors to better identify the broad inventive concept and its fallback features and to develop a suite of claims that will maximize the patent’s value to the patent owner.
