AT-UC: Brown Bag – Enforcement Actions and Qualcomm: What Do They Mean for Patent Owners and Patent Licensing?
Webinar | 02.28.17, 7:00 AM EST - 8:00 AM EST
Please join the Unilateral Conduct Committee and the Intellectual Property Committee for a webinar, "Enforcement actions and Qualcomm: What do they mean for patent owners and patent licensing?", on Feb. 28 at noon Eastern.
Antitrust agencies in China, Japan and South Korea have issued decisions against Qualcomm -- the wireless telecommunications chip maker -- concerning its patent-licensing practices. Investigations are pending in the U.S. and European Union. This program will compare and contrast the agencies' different legal theories toward Qualcomm. It will consider if there are broader policy implications of these actions. For example, what might these actions signal about how agencies think about standard-essential patents and FRAND, and how might their actions impact patent owners in the future?
Antitrust Senior Counsel Lisa Kimmel is a panelist for this webinar.

Rethinking "the Administrative State" - Takeaways From the Supreme Court's 2025–26 Term
The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term took up several momentous cases that will influence and, in key respects, reorient constitutional separation-of-powers principles moving forward. Join the D.C. Bar Administrative Law and Agency Practice Community for a discussion of the key takeaways from the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term. This panel will examine decisions addressing the scope of executive branch authority, including cases involving tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the removal of leaders of so-called independent agencies. The discussion will also address significant orders issued on the Court's emergency docket and what these decisions and orders signal about the distinct roles the three branches of federal government play in shaping the administrative state.
