This workshop will help participants to ensure that their patent agreements do not infringe the EC Treaty’s ban on restrictive business practices. Participants will get a practical guidance on: Assesing court’s views on patent settlements; weighing up the role of authorised generics in the market; determining when bundled discounts and exclusive contracts are illegal and understanding which antitrust pitfalls to avoid when entering into licenses. The course will be held on the 26-27 of June 2008, in London, United Kingdom.
