2024 was an active year in Canadian patent law. Canadian courts issued several decisions on the merits regarding invalidity and/or infringement, and considered due care in the context of paying maintenance fees, regulatory issues related to patented medicines, and remedies available when a patent is infringed, among other patent related issues.

This webinar offers a valuable opportunity for legal professionals and others interested in Canadian patent law to gain an overview of developments in 2024. Speakers will highlight a significant statutory change and discuss notable points raised in the reported decisions.
