Technology standards like 5G have revolutionized the way we use our smartphones, and they are bringing similar changes to other industries as connectivity becomes an invaluable feature for most products. Although the next revolution in the industry is already underway, some have questioned whether the government needs to revise the system by providing more information about the patents that are essential to practice technology standards. Join Hudson Institute’s panel to learn more about the methodologies for identifying essential patents.
