Topics will include the America Invents Act, both in terms of some of its substantive provisions and the realm of bigger vision issues like (1) factors that motivated the bill; (2) why provisions that were included in drafts were not enacted (assuming the bill is enacted by August 4th); and (3) what the future of legislative patent reform efforts might be.
