Harness IP takes pride in our collective knowledge of intellectual property law and how it affects businesses and organizations across a range of industries. We also enjoy keeping up with the latest decisions from the prominent venues that affect IP law, including the Federal Circuit, the U.S. Supreme Court, and the PTAB. Our goal is to distill this knowledge into practical guidance that in-house counsel and others can use. We invite you to join our audience and enrich the discussion whenever possible.
