Patent reform is high on the agenda for Congress. Competing bills introduced this year take different approaches to improving the patent litigation system. Will these proposals, ranging from heightened pleading standards to changing the standard for fee shifting, strengthen or weaken the patent system? What will be the effect on innovation? Panelists at “Patent Reform and the 114th Congress: What does the Evidence Show?” hosted by the Technology Policy Institute, will attempt to disentangle some of the conflicting data and research. More details regarding the panel will be announced in upcoming weeks.

Patent Reform and the 114th Congress: What does the Evidence Show?” will be held Tuesday, April 7, 2015 from 12:00 pm to 2:00pm in Room HVC 201 at the Capitol Visitor Center, located at 1st Street, NE and East Capitol Street in Washington, DC.
