On Spring Equinox, Japanese national holiday, we welcomed two guest speakers from Marks & Clark: Michael Moore, Partner at Marks & Clerk Law LLP and Charlie Balme, Partner at Marks & Clerk Law LLP. It was a "super" exciting interactive discussion. They prepared three topics: SEP, grace period and exhaustion. But we discussed only SEPs. One and a half hours were not enough to cover everything. I thought that Japan can learn from UK. They show great presence not with size of economy but with their intellectual contribution. UK courts set a SEP royalty rate globally but their decision sounded flexible and future-proof. Now that UK looks eager to show benefit of Brexit, it will probably play a "new" important role in IP policy making. Thanks, Michael and Charlie, for your great contribution to our club!
