Troutman publishes an extended article on intellectual property in energy technology
Troutman Pepper Locke said it published an extended version of Gregory Len’s article on how intellectual property rights underpin the energy industry’s data-driven transformation, a condensed version of which appeared in Gasworld on September 18. The firm said the article notes there is no property right in raw operational data under U.S. law, so contracts govern it, and covers background and foreground IP in joint ventures, 5G standard-essential patent licensing and patent portfolio strategy.
