Graph Expo Seminar to Crack Patent Troll Issue

A Graph Expo seminar led by Cal Poly Professor Emeritus Harvey R. Levenson will be held on September 14, 2015 (Monday, 8:30 AM – 10 AM) at McCormick Place in Chicago. The seminar will focus on graphic arts patents and the intensifying patent troll matter.

Increasingly more OEMs, distributors, and printing companies are being harassed by payment demands for licensing fees or huge one-time payments from patent trolls trying to make profits out of existing software and technology representing proven successes for the printing industry. In view of this, the seminar will cover how to deal with the issue.

Levenson said, “These companies have nothing to do with our industry but are threatening our positive contributions to the national and world economy and job market. Our business clients and employee jobs are at stake.”

With more than 25 years of experience on the patent issues in printing industry, Levenson further pointed out that “the reality is that many of the patents that trolls have purchased are invalid due to the existence of Prior Art that would nullify them.”
