About a week ago I got a message from Maier Fenster, asking if I wanted to give a talk on my ”IP in AP” white paper as part of his #IPTechTuesday line of webinars.
Never too shy to put myself on stage, I took him up on his offer, sent 1 or 2 drafts of my presentation, and that’s it. No preparation needed, as it is all so embroidered in my thoughts, that I am just looking for venues to vent 😊
Take a look at the ~35-minute recordingand tell me if you can perfectly describe your favourite egg dish in a patent claim format. Feel free to share your claim in the comments below, and let’s see if I can unequivocally identify your egg dish. It’s a nice exercise, very fun to do, and guaranteed to get you thinking on the difficulties faced by patent attorneys in describing alternative foods.
If you are a founder and want future patent examiners to understand what you actually invented – let’s talk.
If you are an investor and want your portfolio companies to have meaningful patents – let’s talk too.
