IPWatchdog Unleashed
Patents, Trade Secrets & AI with WIPO's András Jókúti
This week our conversation takes us on an international journey, more or less. Andras JOKUTI is an intellectual property lawyer with domestic and international experience in public IP policy and university technology transfer. He is the former Director-General for Legal Affairs of the Hungarian Intellectual Property Office, and he is a former Fulbright Scholar. Andras studied intellectual property and obtained his LL.M. in intellectual property law from The George Washington University. Thereafter, Andras worked with the Budapest University of Technology and Economics to strengthen its IP and technology transfer operations. And since January 2022, he has served as the Director of the Patent and Technology Law Division at World Intellectual Property Organization. Andras came to the United States last week to speak at IPWatchdog LIVE 2024, which was hosted at the Renaissance Capitol View hotel in Arlington, Virginia.
During our wide-ranging conversation we discuss a number of issues, from standard essential patents, to artificial intelligence, and to trade secrets, which is what brought him to IPWatchdog, to discuss the new WIPO trade secret guide, published in July 2024.
