I'd like to share 10 IP related blog posts that caught my eye in the previous week.
Patents
1. Dennis Crouch, in his blog "PatentlyO", writes about one of the suggested changes mentioned in the Senate report on patent reform and in particular to the elimination of “the antiquated notion that it is the inventor who files the application, not the company-assignee.”
