Assisted Robot Patent Drafting

This workshop is designed to empower legal professionals with knowledge and skills in AI-assisted patent drafting, offering a hands-on approach with practical lessons and live application demonstrations.

Throughout the workshop, you will explore various aspects of robot patent drafting, gaining insights into the patent system, navigating its intricacies, and honing your skills in drafting patent claims.

What sets this course apart is its distinctive application of robotic technology – you will have the opportunity to work alongside intelligent robotic assistants that will guide you through the patent drafting process.

By the end of the workshop, you will be able to draft patent applications using a patent drafting robot, starting from an invention disclosure.

You will also acquire valuable knowledge on different patent filing strategies and tactics, including how to work with Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) patent applications, national patent applications, and with regional patent applications.

Who Should Attend

• Inventors, innovators, engineers and researchers who want to learn how to protect their inventions through patents

• Patent attorneys and legal professionals who want to understand the intricacies of drafting patents with the help of robots

Prerequisites

Individuals must learn and understand the ABCD concept, a term that trainer, Martin Schweiger, has come up with to represent the different stages of one’s innovation:

• “A”: an invention that has been conceived in the Idea stage

• “B”: an invention that has been conceived in the Proof-of-Concept stage

• “C”: an invention that has been conceived in the Prototype stage

• “D”: an invention that has been conceived in the Product stage

The inventive concept “A” is filed at a patent office such that you get a quick official search result, while the inventive concepts “B” and “C” can be covered by provisional filings that are free at all patent offices of this world, except at the US Patent Office.
