As the United States looks toward the next frontier of technological leadership, from advanced artificial intelligence to the global race for 6G, US agencies have become increasingly active in shaping policy around patents and innovation. There is a growing recognition that strong, reliable patent rights are essential not only to innovation and competition, but also to sustaining US technological leadership.

Join Hudson for an expert panel discussion on the latest policy developments and what an evidence-based approach means for the future of innovation.
