New York City Bar Association holds nanotech patent panel

Posted on June 12, 2006

Nanotechnology Patent Law

Monday, June 19, 2006 at 6:30 p.m.

The Science & Law Committee and Patents Committee invite you to a panel discussion about nanotechnology, the science of manipulating matter at the molecular level. The race to patent this new technology has produced a flood of broad and overlapping patents. These "patent thickets" may spur considerable patent litigation and make it challenging for companies to commercialize the revolutionary advances in medicine, electronics, manufacturing and other fields made possible by nanotechnology. This panel discussion will be held at 42 West 44th Street, and is open to the public.

DREW HARRIS
Managing Editor, Nanotechnology Law & Business (New York)

DOUGLAS JAMISON
President, Harris & Harris Group, Inc., and Co-Editor-in-Chief, Nanotechnology Law & Business (New York)
