  • What is the key business consideration with foreign patent practice?
  • Foreign patent practice can be expensive. The underlying business should justify the costs in all cases, but even more so with foreign patent applications in view of the cost. Actively seek marketing avenues and/or licensure/assignments in foreign countries preferably before filing a PCT application, but more importantly before filing in individual countries. Although costs can be considerable, these business opportunities can easily justify the cost of foreign patent protection.
