Since 1977, SVIPLA has honored annually a member of the intellectual property community as its Inventor of the Year. The recipients have made outstanding contributions to the technology industry, including such inventions for: integrated circuit technology, basic gene splicing, automobile navigation systems, over the counter medications drug delivery systems, the bar code, the optical mouse and many more impressive and recognizable inventions.
The Silicon Valley IP Law Association will host its Inventor of the Year award presentation and December 2017 Program: "Section 101 - Before and After Alice and Prometheus" at the SVIPLA annual Holiday gathering on December 14, 2017 at 6:00 p.m. PT at the Crowne Plaza Cabana Hotel, Palo Alto, CA. Although the Supreme Court's changes to the law of patentable subject matter have caused great disruption within the patent community, little work has been done to isolate and contextualize the impact of the Court's decisions, relative to other parts of the code, and to the prosecution of parallel cases in other jurisdictions. Professor Colleen Chien, Santa Clara University School of Law, will present new research that addresses these issues and attempts to cut through the fog over patentability that has descended following the Court's decisions.
