IAM will be offering a free webinar on "The Impact of Oil States and SAS Institute on Your PTAB Strategy" on May 29, 2018 starting at 4:00 (BST).  IAM North America editor Richard Lloyd will moderate a roundtable discussion of attorneys from Oblon, McClelland, Maier & Neustadt; Knobbe Martens; and Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner to discuss the implications of the Supreme Court's decision in decisions in Oil States v Greene's Energy and SAS Institute v Iancu and how they will affect the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), inter partes review petitioners, and patent owners.  The roundtable will address the following topics:

• Key takeaways from both the majority and dissenting opinions in Oil States
• Where the decision in Oil States leaves further challenges to inter partes reviews
• The likely impact of SAS on petitioners and patent owners
• How the PTAB intends to implement SAS
• The long-term effects on PTAB strategy for both petitioners and patent owners
• The likely impact of a move away from broadest reasonable interpretation to the Philips claim construction standard in post-issuance reviews
