Trade secrets are increasingly becoming the preferred protection for intellectual property. As a result, trade secret disputes and verdicts have dominated the news, as juries have awarded $2B to Appian Corp., $65M against Goodyear Tire & Rubber, and $105 million against Ford Motor Company, only to see some of those verdicts reduced or eliminated by the courts. These big verdicts and the challenges in upholding them, signal a potentially significant shift away from how trade secret cases have been traditionally litigated, as employers have previously relied on injunctions to prevent employees and others from taking their trade secrets. This presentation will address the importance of trade secret litigation in protecting your IP, the potential paradigm shifts in trade secret litigation, and guide trade secret owners and their lawyers in adapting to these changes.

Trademark applications and their resulting registrations can be some of the most powerful tools available for brand owners to protect their identity in the marketplace. In addition, they provide exclusive rights and "tangible" assets for a business to use, license, and even sell. But, what happens when unscrupulous third parties, non-practicing entities and "squatters" try and block a legitimate brand owner from protecting their own brand names and identity by filing applications before a rightful brand owner has a chance? This cross-jurisdictional panel will discuss the laws of "bad faith" filings in the United States, Canada, and the European Union, and, with reference to recent cases, will provide some tips, tricks, and pitfalls for brand owners and litigants to use to help manage these potentially problematic applications and registrations and to avoid becoming the inadvertent target of a bad faith filing claim.

In this session, we will explore two big copyright challenges presented by generative AI. First, we will consider if and when works generated by AI may be protected by copyright, and if so, who would be considered the work's author. Even if an author can protect a work creating using AI, overcoming that challenge will be a pyrrhic victory if the work unlawfully infringes other creative works. Famous authors, entertainers and news organizations have all initiated litigation insisting that AI tools trained on their works are acts of infringement. We will discuss these claims and then consider how to assess the risk of infringement in the face of so much legal uncertainty.
