Please join us for our Sixth Annual Patent Trial & Appeal Board (PTAB) program, which is a part of the IPWatchdog Masters™ series. This high-level, interactive program will feature discussions on all aspects of the PTAB practice led by highly experienced PTAB practitioners and top thought leaders in the industry.
Due to the severe winter storm we are expecting across most of the North East, the IPWatchdog PTAB Masters™ program will now be held Virtually on January 29-30, 2026. Tickets are available for free. You can register using either button on this page and you will receive information on how to access the program before the end of the day on January 28, 2026.
Our conversations this year will focus on what has been a tumultuous year for the PTAB, with changes that many in the industry feel have swung to favor patent owners at the expense of petitioners. Our discussions will tackle the new processing of PTAB filings, the current state of day-to-day practice at the PTAB, winning arguments and best practices for petitioners to prevail on institution, how patent owners can effectively present discretionary denial arguments, the likelihood of legislative and regulatory changes to PTAB practice, and major decisions by both the PTAB and the Federal Circuit.
