16th IP and Competition Forum, Munich realiza-se de 2 a 3 de junho de 2027, Residenz Palace, em Munich.

Where global patent strategy meets reality.The 16th IP and Competition Forum in Munich examines how cross-border patent strategy works in practice: before the UPC and national courts, in FRAND and SEP management, in patent pool licensing, in global rate-setting and in competition policy.Building on the Oxford Forum, Munich moves the discussion from reference points to application – remedies, procedure, evidence, costs, injunctions, settlement leverage and commercial outcomes.This is not a passive conference. It is a working forum for senior judicial, corporate, economic, legal and policy perspectives shaping the future of patent enforcement.What Munich Will TestUPC, National Courts & European Enforcement StrategyHow the UPC and national courts are reshaping remedies, costs, procedure, case strategy and enforcement behaviour.Long-Arm Jurisdiction & Cross-Border RemediesHow courts influence disputes beyond their borders, and how parties respond through global litigation and licensing strategies.FRAND, SEPs & Global Rate-SettingHow courts, companies and licensing platforms approach value, comparables, portfolio licensing and global rates.Patent Pools, Video Coding & StreamingHow video coding, streaming and platform-based licensing are changing the debate on fair value, access and market-wide licensing.6G, Standards & Patent ValueHow next-generation connectivity will test patent quality, essentiality, valuation and licensing models.Competition Policy, Licensing & Market AccessHow competition authorities, courts and companies assess remedies, standards, licensing efficiency and innovation incentives.Litigation Economics, Costs & ADRWhether arbitration, mediation and structured dispute resolution can reduce uncertainty in complex cross-border patent disputes.Why Munich?Munich gives the 2027 OxFora programme its practical anchor.The Forum will focus on how patents are managed and commercialised: how costs influence strategy, how injunctions create leverage, how licensing pressure builds, how settlements are reached, and how courts, companies and competition authorities respond.Set in the Residenz Palace, the Munich Forum offers a focused environment for senior exchange at the intersection of litigation, licensing, standards, competition policy and market strategy.Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how cross-border enforcement is developing in practice across the UPC, national courts, licensing markets and competition policy, and with practical reference points for litigation strategy, licensing negotiations, patent valuation, FRAND disputes, patent pools, standards and market access.
