Five Pernicious Intellectual Property Myths
Jane Lambert
In this article, I am challenging the following myths that are probably responsible for our trailing many of our competitors in the number of patent, design and trade mark applications.
Myth #1 There's no point in acquiring an intellectual property right because you can never afford to enforce it.
It is probably still the case that England and Wales (and indeed Scotland and Northern Ireland) are among the most expensive countries in the world to bring a full blown patent action. That is because our legal system provides for close investigation of the evidence and full consideration of the arguments which tends to assure the most just outcome.
But most IP cases do not require that degree of scrutiny. For the last 6 ½ years the Intellectual Property Enterprise Court (formerly the Patents County Court) has provided a high-quality dispute resolution service where the issues are defined in advance, trials are limited to two days and recoverable costs are capped at £50,00…

Lambert to speak at IP Law Summer School

Earlier this week I mentioned Juris Conferences LLC's Eleventh Annual Investment Treaty Arbitration Conference – Technology, IP and Investor-State Arbitration at the Washington Plaza Hotel in Washington DC on 25 April 2017. I suggested that it was particularly timely in view of the final award in Eli Lilly & Co. v Canada 16 March 2017 which I discussed in the Falling to BITs: the Eli Lilly and Philip Morris Cases8 April 2017 NIPC Law. I canvassed support for a similar conference on that topic in England and received one positive reply through Linkedin.
The next day I received an invitation from the organizers of the Cambridge IP Law Summer School to speak on the subject at this year's summer school at Downing College, Cambridge between 14 and 18 Aug 2017. This should be a splendid occasion. The agenda looks fascinating. Some of the country's leading practitioners in IP law have agreed to speak at the event.
